14 DAY TRIAL // Donald Trump knew that running for President of the United States in the 2016 elections would turn out to be bad for business, but he never imagined it would be this bad. The real estate mogul and television personality lost another partner this weekend, over the comments he made on illegal immigrants coming from Mexico.
NASCAR announced that they would no longer be hosting the Camping World Truck Series Awards Ceremony at the Trump National Doral in Miami. And it’s just one of many of Trump’s longtime partners to drop him for saying that Mexican illegals are rapists, drug dealers and thieves.
Donald Trump is surprised
So far, Trump has lost several important business partners for a statement he made when discussing the need to secure the border between the US and Mexico, because Mexico wasn’t “sending their best” into the United States.
NBC Universal, Univision and Macy’s Department Store decided his statements did not align with their policy of inclusion and no discrimination, so they dropped him and his business. Word has it that he stands to lose even more partners in the following weeks, even though he is a favorite in the Republican polls.
He knew he would get backlash for his immigration comments, Trump says in an interview with Fox and Friends (video below), so there’s no surprise in that. However, what he did not expect was to lose NASCAR because they always seemed to him to want to do something about the problem of illegal immigration.
As unpleasantly surprised as he may be, Trump remains optimistic: he knew going into politics would end up costing him a lot, but he also knows he will survive this.
Just as he said in the case of NBC, Univision and Macy’s, Trump is convinced that his business is strong enough to withstand losing NASCAR.
Donald Trump will be a POTUS with less silly hair
On a lighter note, while discussing the first thing on his agenda once he’s voted President of the United States, Trump recently joked that he would be cutting off his hair and thus ditching his infamous “Trump hairdo.”
For years, he’s been ridiculed for doing what many balding men are guilty of doing and for taking the combover to new, hilarious heights.
Trump’s hair is almost as famous as he is, and even had its own meme. It’s been compared to a dead rat or weasel, a carpet, or even a caterpillar, and it’s been studied so intensely that there are several theories online about how to achieve this apparently complicated combover.
Some, more skeptic by nature, even claimed that what looks like a combover is actually a wig, a claim that Trump happily proved wrong by letting certain (lucky) talk show hosts touch it, live on the air.
