Default Doing business with Trump in LA

An amusing LA Times account of Donald Trump's head on colliision with the people of Rancho Palo Verdes, part of LA.

Amusingly, two golfers from Calgary are quoted at the end of the story.

He controls the chips. But they hold the trump card.

That's the gist of the high-stakes card game being played in Rancho Palos Verdes as billionaire developer Donald Trump struggles to rename a street that leads to his new $250-million oceanfront golf course, Trump National Golf Club Los Angeles.

Trump wants city officials to change Ocean Trails Drive to Trump National Drive.

But some on the Palos Verdes Peninsula say they are already weary of the mogul's push into their community and have suggested some alternative names: "Ego Aisle." Or "Narcissism Lane."
