When The Donald says it's not:
This case again raises the issue, so carefully analyzed by Judge Seitz, of whether consumers can be misled by the overall impression and strength of an expensive condo marketing campaign as against disclaimers and exculpatory language inserted (buried?) some place in the contract docs.Thirty buyers of Trump International units at 551 N. Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd. are suing the developers and Trump for allegedly misleading them into thinking the TV star's participation was a sure thing. Though sales contracts identify the project as the SB Fort Lauderdale Hotel & Condominium and state that Trump can withdraw from the licensing deal, the suit claims that marketing materials suggested Trump was on board as a developer.
''Everybody thought they were buying into Trump Tower,'' said Joseph Altschul, the Fort Lauderdale lawyer who filed the suit in Broward County Circuit Court.
The suit claims plaintiffs ''paid a premium for a condominium unit with the Trump name purportedly attached to it,'' reads the suit filed in Broward County Circuit Court. The project's website described it Thursday as ``a signature development by Donald J. Trump.''
The short answer: Joe, don't put a lot of money in this one.
When "mere multimillionaire" The Donald pulls out, maybe you should too.

One of life's lessons:
"You don't tug on Shumie's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the ol' lone ranger
and you don't mess around with The Donald"
BTW: FIRST!!!
The website still proclaims it as a Trump project!
The Donald now is a millionaire only? there goes the neighborhood
WTF?! Where is the sexual overtone this blog typically has?
THE Donald? Man has an ego.
Don't worry, today is Wednesday.
"Pulls out" 11:13.....
SFL will "pull out" the sexual overtone on Friday. The man has to "research" first.
@11:13 AM
Thinking of Donald Trump shrinks my boner. Some topics just don't work with sexual overtones.
SFL, I think you hit the nail on the head. When The Donald pulls out, I would too.
I seem to remember an article I read citing all of the bankruptcies Trump's properties have had.
With that being said, I don't know that I'm sold on the power or quality of the name "Trump" anymore.
Excellent post!
SFL is a theologian. His “research” involves getting to know the latina in the biblical sense.
The Donald, is it a toupée? Or cotton candy?
4:01, I hear she is good getting down on her knees to "pray"
11:32, The name "The Donald" was given to him by his ex wife Ivana.
4:15, Funny.
5:20 again- Funny but distasteful.
You are a cretin @4:15. Shitty comments make us all look bad.
4:15, not particularly funny either.
Aw c’mon 5:30 it’s all harmless.
BTW I would not mind tapping her.
