New Yorkers overwhelmingly voted for Hillary and yesterday residents of several Trump-owned buildings voted to have the President-elect’s name from the entrance. Equity Residential relented its opposition and workers began the process by removing the letter T transforming the complex into Rump Place. A small crowd cheered from the sidewalk.
Meanwhile Trump has taken up residence at Trump Tower on 5th Avenue. Police and Secret Service have shut down the block, killing retail sales within the glimmering skyscraper.
Across the street protestors collide with tourists seeking to selfie themselves before the now-iconic building.
At least the cops are getting more overtime.
Protecting Trump’s rump.
And it’s a big one.
