Eric Trump Admits The Trump Brand Is Failing Because Of Donald’s Presidency In a recent interview with The New York Times, Eric Trump opened up about the struggles faced by the Trump brand since his father, Donald Trump, took office as President of the United States. According to Eric and his brother Donald Jr., they have encountered significant barriers in closing deals and expanding their business ventures linked to the Trump Organization.

Key Points from the Interview​

  • Business Challenges: Eric acknowledged that they are currently unable to secure new properties or absorb other businesses due to concerns over the perception of leveraging their father's presidential position for personal gain. This has led to stagnation and even decline in the Trump Organization’s business activities .
  • Financial Impact: Reports have indicated losses totaling around $600 million for the Trump Organization since 2017. The unfavorable association many hold with the Trump brand under the current administration has significantly impacted its marketability. Eric admitted the brand is failing, highlighting a sharp increase in the difficulty of conducting business due to public perception and backlash .
  • Public Image Matters: The interview stressed how Donald Trump's global image as a "narcissistic bully" has affected the family's business dealings. Eric noted that businesses are hesitant to associate with the Trump brand due to the negative connotations attached to it .

    Future Outlook​

    Despite facing these challenges, Eric indicated that the Trump Organization's strategy moving forward would focus on stabilizing their existing properties rather than seeking new ventures. He expressed hope that in a few years, their father’s potential return to business might help ease their struggles . However, the outlook remains bleak as it appears the brand may continue to suffer from the fallout of its current presidential connections.
