After the PGA withdrew its tournament from his New Jersey golf course and his D.C. hotel saw patronage evaporate, former President Donald Trump's brand continues to suffer after his tenure in the White House concluded.

Most recently, the luxury travel site Virtuoso has removed all of the Trump Organization's branded hotels from its site—a total of 10 properties, including the Trump International Hotel in D.C.

Virtuoso quietly removed the properties from its site earlier this month, with global public relations director Misty Ewing Belles, saying in a statement to Zenger News:

"As of March 8, 2021, Trump Hotels are no longer part of the Virtuoso network ... Out of respect for all involved parties, and as a general policy, we do not share comments regarding our non-renewal and exit decisions."

In the business for nearly 40 years, Virtuoso offers exclusive benefits to users through invitation-only partnerships with its various hotels and venues.

Speaking to the Washington Post, travel industry analyst Henry Harteveldt said of the Trump Organization's removal:

"It's a big deal because Virtuoso is very well-respected in the industry. It serves a very elite base of customers and its actions are often studied by others. With Virtuoso doing this, some travel agencies that may have been debating whether or not to do it could decide well, if Virtuoso has done this, we too will end our professional relationship with the Trump hotels."

Trump was already a highly controversial figure throughout his campaigns and presidency, but this came to a boil after his lies about the validity of the 2020 election prompted a mob of pro-Trump extremists to storm the United States Capitol in a deadly failed insurrection. Trump was impeached a historic second time for inciting an insurrection, only to be narrowly acquitted in his Senate trial.

Trump's critics mocked him upon hearing the Virtuoso news.






Others thought, if anything, Virtuoso waited too long.



It's unclear just how damaging the blow will be to the Trump Organization, especially if other travel sites follow suit.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
