The Latest Trump Hotel

I saw this on Twitter yesterday and assumed it was either a parody or someone trolling the anti-Trump crowd to get us to repeat an obviously fake image (like the fake Fordham transcript):


Who would be stupid enough to emblazon the Trump name on the White House in this way, right?

Right?

But no. I guess this is a real object that's for sale in the Trump Store in the Trump International Hotel in Washington. The taxpayer-funded White House, whose image and seal is not supposed to be used in any commercial way, is now being portrayed as a hotel in the Trump chain. On merchandise that's sold to fund a private corporation whose owner has so many conflicts of interest it can't even be sorted out.
