Agreed. Also, I just wanted to point out that the way your comment is phrased makes it uncertain whether it's the name "Seattle" that Trump would sell to Nestlé or the actual city itself, including its, people, land, government and infrastructure. To clarify, I believe it would be both of those things.
Hey, he'd sell the people too
I feel like I did mention that, but I agree it needs to be stated twice, because he would absolutely sell people, fail to deliver, blame it on the buyer, tie them up in court until the buyer gives up, and then sell the people again.
