“We have a waiting list of 2,000 names. So we are moving ahead with a second tower which will have a 35 percent price increase.” — Donald Trump, at the July 12, 2005 groundbreaking for Trump International. Needless to say, the first tower didn’t come close to selling out and the second, pricier one was never built.

Thank you DAVID. The truth about Donald Trump and his exagerations is important for the public to know. Hopefully he will be confronted when on TV or radio. dick birnbaum
Trump seems constitutionally immune to facts. It’s time to ignore him until the “will he run” rumors begin in Iowa in late 2014. He is one candidate who would do well to wear a large hat but not to throw his hair into the ring.
I love it, but the craze was so intense around that time, that he probably did have a huge waiting list! Problem with “reservations” for condos in Nevada for developers is that you do not need to close on them. Ruffin and Trump were also probably relying on The Plaza getting built to bring some traffic their way. Trump LV is a very nice property. At least they got the thing built! But yes, to the point, he is a buffoon.
