I thought about Trump almost not at all. What - a real

slathers his name on every building that he puts up?
Sounds very
egotistical. And a game show with a punch line "You're

watch any game shows, and if I did, that would be low on
the list.

Tom is making a common ideologue mistake: assuming
everyone that
disagrees with him has exactly the same opinions.

Again and again you show your total ignorance of business.
That is called "branding" and not egotism. Do you say that
about Motel 6 or the Radisson chain?

I wasn't aware that any Mister 6 was responsible for
splashing his name on all those Hotel 6 buildings. And I see
that Radisson was named after a 17th century French
explorer. Did he return from the dead to promote his "brand"?

A counter-example: Arni Nashbar is a friend of mine. He
started a business called Bike Warehouse that did remarkably
well. At a time it was growing rapidly, the name changed to
Bike Nashbar. As he was showing a bunch of us around the
works at that time, he said he resisted that name change;
but his lawyers said it would be difficult to impossible to
defend a copyright on "Bike Warehouse" - that it was too
generic. They urged him to use his last name.

I think that was pretty much the opposite of the
self-proclaimed "stable genius," the "I'm a very smart guy,"
the guy who said "I really am brilliant," etc.

Can you spot any egotism? I can.

Every time you post you show why your life has been a
failure and why your hatred for anyone and everyone around
you is so intense.

Tom, I'm sorry you're a nut case living in a hell hole. I
really am sorry. But please understand, it's not my fault.




We can do this all day long regarding brands, both examples
and counterexamples. For every Days Inn there's a Hilton. No
one did ego like Leona Helmsley of Helmsley Hotels.

This only proves that the world is a big place and says
nothing about Donald J Trump one way or the other.
