I take it you’re okay with the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport in Little Rock though?

Did they trademark it to grift off of it? Do two wrongs make a right?

Sweet, I may fly through that airport and share some photos with your dirty ilk

Funny how you leave this part out
So how is this a grift again?

Weinberger asserted there was no collaboration between lawmakers and Trump’s company on the name change and the family has agreed “to completely waive the trademark for the Trump name to Palm Beach International.”
So how is this a grift again?

It's more than that.
Did any of y'all read the article? This isn't just renaming an airport...who cares about that? This is about Trump having diverted significant federal funds to modernize equipment at this airport in exchange for renaming it for the purpose of trademarking the name and profiting off of it.
quote:
A spokesperson for the Trump Organization said he and his family “will not receive any royalty, licensing fee, or financial consideration whatsoever from the proposed airport renaming.” However, a closer examination of the trademark application shows the Trump Organization could benefit from licensing the name for goods and services, including watches, clocks, jewelry, clothing, restaurants, and other collectibles. The application also includes claims to rights of any airport baggage check-in areas, airport construction, and the “plastic slippers used in the airport environment when going through security to keep feet and socks clean.”
The application suggests that, even if the Trump family didn’t profit from the airport itself, they could profit from the selling of items inside the airport, or even elsewhere.
“There could be a whole market at the airport, or even off the airport premises. [The] Trump Org would own the trademark and be able to license that name to anybody that was making and selling that merchandise,”
If any Democrat were doing this the board would dook themselves hollering about it.

We get it, Trump could cure cancer and you'd pull for the cancer. You don't like him, move on. This is a stupid hill to die on.

And yet, the trademarks were filed under "intent to use," which means they were fully intending to profit from the trademark.
I don't know if what you posted means that they got caught and backed off, or if there is a loophole that they will exploit. But the intent to profit was clear, otherwise the lawyers wouldn't have filed the trademark that way.

You do realize that it can be done to keep others from making merch and selling it once the airport is officially renamed? It seems to be a protective maneuver to continue to protect a brand that Trump spent 50+ years building. Trump has sold his naming rights for decades and unless he continues to protect it with legal trademarks, it can weaken his arguments to continue to protect it, letting others trademark it and abuse it.
You guys have zero clue how brand protections work
This isn't about making a few dollars off some mugs and tshirts in an airport gift shop but leave it to TDS libs to think so small
