Tarnished brand names towering above the city

I did not vote for Trump, but I feel bad for him and our democracy, which is being eaten alive by the media and our elected and unelected body of government in Washington. Based on seeing through past lies and the present fictions, folks who should know better are manipulating facts and presenting hearsay about events and publishing "leaks" of conversations as actionable fact to the American people. There is no hesitancy to go to print or speak about speculations. People are being brainwashed by internet and television news to a degree that is beyond belief today.

If the AMA House of Delegates resolution/policy is to end mandatory MOC the AMA should push their affiliates to make it so. All the associated organizations should follow to correct the MOC debacle.

If Trump wants to improve relations with Russia he should be allowed to do so. We worked for years to end the cold war. Idiots are bringing it back.

The AMA is 'just renting', but Trump Tower is 'renting out'.

In 2006 the AMA moved into the old "IBM Plaza" at 330 Wabash then owned by the Blackstone Group (since 1996). The AMA previously had their offices on State Street.

In 2000, Trump planned for Trump Tower in Chicago to be the tallest building in the world, but after the 9/11 devastation, which occurred to the WTC towers in NY the plans were revised. Trump Tower Chicago is currently the seventh tallest buildings in the world.

New investors now own the "Beacon-AMA Plaza" http://www.beaconcapital.com/, but "Trump Tower" completed in 2009 is owned by Trump.

Who pays to have their brand names on these two Chicago towers - the AMA or Trump?
