Amid reports that Donald Trump ’s campaign will hold daily briefings at the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention — a cute lil’ transfer of campaign funds to the candidate’s personal business portfolio — Democratic operatives are having some fun trolling their rival ahead of the convention’s kick-off on Monday. Party operatives, armed with a high-powered projector, booked themselves a room across the street from Trump Tower to display the message “Trump-Vance: Out For Themselves” — along with other slogans intended to rankle, rile, and otherwise irritate the candidate — across his 92-story building’s gleaming glass facade. The slogans “Trump-Vance: ‘Weird as Hell,’” “Harris-Walz: Fighting for You,” and “Project 2025 HQ” are also in rotation.
Since taking over the ticket, Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz , have frequently described Trump and his VP nominee, Sen. J.
D. Vance, as “weird,” thoroughly annoying Trump. As for Project 2025, Trump has furiously (and unsuccessfully) sought to distance himself from the conservative personnel and policy program, intended to help him hit the ground running in a second term, as it’s gained notoriety and generated controversy.
The Skidmore, Owings & Merrill-designed building — one of Trump’s last big construction projects before he became president — is also one of the biggest failures to hit the Chic.
