Lawyers working for Trump hotel in Chicago–pushing for a tax break–are quite blunt about how poorly hotel is doing there. This is from 2023 tax appeal. OCCUPANCY declined. Average daily rate–double digit decline. Revenue per available room–almost down 20 percent. Bad stats. pic.twitter.com/l1kkq52dyO

These documents are part of a long-running dispute over the property taxes owed on Trump Chicago. (This has been covered extensively in local media.) Classic @realDonaldTrump legal strategy of filing neverending motions and appeals in the hopes of grinding down opponents. pic.twitter.com/CroP3HOGpJ
