(59,504 posts)It would be easy to identify both when attacks happen and the messages to delete. A simple algorithim would look for huge peaks in the number of reviews - and then eliminate all reviews for that elevated period or eliminate all reviews from that period from people more than n (100?) miles away. Either would eliminate some legitimate reviews, but the number would be small compared to the number of bogus reviews.

So somehow, it might get cleaned up. Maybe the review sites should partner with restaurants and have reviewers enter a verification code that shows people ate at a place before they are allowed to leave a review.

For the record that restaurant is clean, at least back to 2014. Mar a Lago is not.

(5,101 posts)I'm with you, even if they are not my government representatives. What a disgrace ! Americans didn't deserve that !
I'm baffled ! I knew he had not limits, but seriously ? The President of the USA has nothing more preoccupying than a local restaurant...

(100,103 posts)Many of them have failed multiple health and safety inspections and failed to meet restaurant codes - and that includes Mar-A-Shithole. If he's going to criticize other restaurants that way, he should look at his own first.

I hope this stupid move lands him in even MORE legal trouble.
Go get him, Red Hen!

(5,586 posts)If it had been from his official POTUS account, or in some other form from the White House, then it'd be misuse.
syringis
(5,101 posts)I think it is not as simple as that.
Since he regularly communicates as President and not as a private citizen, the account could be assimilated to the official account.
I'm not familiar with your legal system, but here that's probably what would happen.
Maybe a DU member who is also a lawyer can shed some light ?

(4,292 posts)Considering that his grandfather owned and ran a brothel; and that his (alleged) father was arrested for "refusing to disperse" from a KKK march, before being charged as a war profiteer, and eventually being cited for Civil Rights violations in leasing property; this rotten persimmon didn't fall from the withered, gnarled limb of a diseased tree.
Clean up your own property before you criticize others!

(50,562 posts)The meanest thing a stockbroker from another company can say about your brokerage is its a fine firm. One has to wonder if his referring to Mrs. Sanders in such a fashion isnt the same sort of veiled insult.
And come on, Don: you never even heard of the Red Hen until they threw your minion out of it. Do the words actionable tort mean anything to you?

(34,491 posts)I knew Trump and company would comment on the appearance of the Red Hen. As I was watching the report about the SHS incident, the cameraman did a closeup of the establishment's exterior, which I assumed was on purpose. I did notice how it needed work done. At the time I was thinking that some republican would make a comment about its condition...not surprised it would be Trump.
