Donald Trump won't be eating out too often if he ends up moving to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. While in the process of constructing the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., Trump had two restaurants planned for the building pull out due to his comments on immigrants. Trump sued, and restaurateurs José Andrés and Geoffrey Zakarian countersued.
Since, Trump has tried to keep the whole deposition under wraps. "The judge in the restaurant dispute — D.C. Superior Court Judge Brian Holeman [...] already turned down Trump's request to seal the video and, in so doing, may be providing fodder for Hillary Clinton's campaign and other foes eager to exploit the footage for attack ads," Politico wrote.
