You are not far from wrong. The organization was founded by Spanish chef Jose Andres a noted anti-Trumpist.

The back story according to Wikipedia:

“Andrés planned to open a restaurant in the Trump International Hotel (also known as Old Post Office) in Washington, D.C., in 2016. After Donald Trump made disparaging comments about undocumented Mexican immigrants in June 2015, Andrés withdrew from the contract with the Trump Organization, which then sued him.[15] Andrés counter-sued, and the parties reached a settlement in April 2017.”

Now a naturalized U.S. citizen as of 2013. So yes he’s a globalist stooge.

Meant to say you are not far from being right.

If a boycott would bring this guy’s evil empire down, I’d suggest it.
The Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., closed on 11 May 2022. It was sold to CGI Merchant Group, LLC, and later reopened as the Waldorf Astoria Washington, D.C., on 1 June 2022. On 13 June 2022, Andrés announced that he would return to the location to open the restaurant that he had planned in the original 2015 deal. The Bazaar by José Andrés opened on 8 February 2023. …
The founder and head of CGI Merchant Group, Raoul Thomas, is yet another globalist.
