Donald Trump loves money. Donald Trump is also a racist, xenophobic, ignorant, misogynist who hides behind being against political correctness to get away with his divisive, racist remarks.
If you disagree with Donald Trump and want your voice heard, vote in the presidential election in November and vote with your wallet, every day.
Consumers have already begun to do just that. According to the travel site Hipmunk, bookings for Trump-owned hotels on their site have dropped by 59 percent compared to the same period last year. Overall bookings on the site of other (non-Trump) hotels during the same period have risen.

Even if you just use a card to pay, it has to go through Pay Pal.
I guess I won't be ordering anything until after the election.
