(50,560 posts)I really knew something like this would happen. The Iranians know the only way to faze Trump is to threaten his own properties.
Threaten to blow Fort Bragg off the map? No problem, at least to Donnie.
Threaten to check into a Trump hotel and steal the bathrobe? Now he's really angry. This is Fargin War!

(32,086 posts)As Eddie Murphy's character in "Trading Places" said, "The best way to hurt a rich guy is to make them poor." These threats are going to send people running from any properties with his name on them. Kiss all that revenue good-bye. He's not even going to be able to sell them before this is all over.

Of course the threat could also potentially extend to other "American" properties in general.

(21,675 posts)that most of Trump's buildings only have his name on them, and that he doesn't actually own them anymore? He just sells his branding? Well, except for Mar-a-Loco, pretty sure he owns that one. The ones he actually owns are most likely insured up the yin yang.

(63,221 posts)His business interests are toast. The threat alone is enough to destroy him, even if nothing ever happens. Any savvy investor knows that there is no place to go but down. They are going to be scrambling to dump their Trump properties before their investments become worthless.
I am loving watching this grifting family finally getting what has been coming to them for a very long time. I hope they end up penniless.

Of course it's all total lies, this has nothing to do with helping our country and 100% to be with orange assmouth trying to keep his power and steal even more power so there is no stopping his destruction of our country in favor of Russia & himself.

(23,693 posts)And the US government should not pay one cent to protect them especially Trump properties in foreign countries. Maybe Trump Tower in NY and Mar a-Largo because those are his residences, although he did move his official residence from NY to Fl. But he can pay for his own security forces to provide protection in any property that has the Trump name on it. The Trumpy kids should also watch their backs.
My second thought; there's no way I would stay in a Trump property, but now more than ever, They're right in the crosshairs. Guess he didn't think out all the consequences when he arbitrarily order the assassination of Soleimani.

tclambert
(11,087 posts)If Iran plays it smart, they just keep threatening and make Trump's properties bleed money. That's the only kind of blood he cares about--his money. If Iran actually retaliates, it takes away the immense value of the threat and gives Trump an excuse for more violence.
Iran should just keep talking about Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower and let the fear do all their work.
