Washington D.C. residents are bringing complaints to the Alcohol Beverage Control Board about President Donald Trump’s moral deficiencies that they feel fail the “good character” test required for purveyors of alcohol.
According to a Tuesday Politico report, the residents are specifically citing the Trump International Hotel in D.C., which has become a popular watering hole for Trump and his associates.
Losing its liquor license could hurt the hotel’s business, and lead to revocation of the liquor licenses of the steakhouse and bar associated with the hotel.
Per Politico, it is not uncommon for licenses to be scrutinized or revoked due to infractions like selling to underage patrons or poor record keeping, but it is unusual to consider revocation based on the immorality of the business’ owner.
The complainants cite payments to Stormy Daniels, stories about stiffing contractors, and Michael Cohen’s naming of Trump as an un-indicted co-conspirator as evidence of Trump’s lacking character.
According to Politico, if the board decides that the complaint has merit, the D.C. attorney general will decide whether or not to bring a civil suit. If the AG did choose to take action, the board would make the ultimate decision to revoke the license or not.
I hope the DC Alcohol Board won’t hesitate to contact me if they need any character witnesses as to the proprietors’ fitness to hold a liquor license.
I thought he didn’t drink… which when you think of it makes his rambling even more suspicious

In that regard, trouble in NYC also according to today’s NYT:
"But tour operators and others involved with the [four Trump] concessions suggested that Mr. Trump’s deep unpopularity in his native city was having an impact.
And another threat is looming. The administration of Mayor Bill de Blasio is examining whether the legal troubles of Mr. Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, are grounds for canceling the Trump Organization’s contracts with the city." :o)
