Letters spelling out “Trump Place” on the facades of an Upper West Side building will be pried off by workers Thursday, following a vote from the condo’s board, according to reports.

Residents at 200 Riverside Blvd., a 46-story building between 69th and 70th streets, fought for the right to tear the Trump name from their building following the 2016 election, with many people wanting to distance themselves from politics, The New York Times reported.

Eric Chung, a longtime resident whose family owns two units in the building, told The Times that removing the letters “makes a very powerful statement.”

The tenants don’t deserve to be associated with the Trump brand so it’s just as well.

It makes a very powerful statement about the stupidity of the average NY libtard.

I just don’t get why they are thinking Trump is doing such bad things. I guess Mika and Lemmon are the only people they listen to. It’s really a sick environment. Just saw Trump’s War-really good movie by Steve Bannon.

Removing the Chung family from the U.S. would make an even more powerful statement.

“I just don’t get why they are thinking Trump is doing such bad things.”

Trump does not fit with the Communist plan to turn America into another Soviet Union. Therefore he can do nothing right! /sarcasm

If idiots want to depreciate the value of their property by changing it from a Trump building to some lame a$$ stupid name, go for it.

I don’t care

It will just be another “Garden Apartments by the Park” or whatever lame name that sounds like every other building in New York. Oh well.

Idiots!
Ten years from now the name alone will double the property value.

These loudmouth, snobs don’t deserve to live in the US anymore. They are some of the most privileged people on the planet but they’re so blind to their place in life. They think the world owes them, due to their gracing the rest of us, with their presence. They live in their liberal enclaves, support all the right causes, but don’t dare let anyone that isn’t like them in their world.

If chaos and violence ever come, they will be the first to reap what they’ve sown. They think that because they’re liberals and say that, they care, that they will be immune from the violence, etc. I’ll be laughing, as will a lot of other people, as we hold onto our AR15s and AR10s and defend ourselves.

Look at this from a neutral viewpoint.

Guy wearing MAGA hat gets concussion from beating. Building with GOP offices painted with nasty graffiti. Senators shot at ball game. One of the most law abiding Justice officials in the whole country is savagely attacked by women over claims he fondled a drunk chick at a high school party .

I bet the Residents of the Condo just don't want to see their Property burned to the ground.

Stupidity of the people in UWS fails to surprise me... Did Trump own the building? If Trump does, I’d love to see the tenants be removed.

If I understand it, the Trump Brand was licensed to the building owners. The building itself isn’t owned by the Trump Org.
