Mukemmel "Mike'' Sarimsakci, who has been promoting plans to launch the Trump Organization's new Scion line of luxury hotels on a vacant lot near Dallas City Hall, told City Council members that he will work instead with another hotel company, according to council member Philip Kingston.

The change in plans follows a March investigation by The Dallas Morning News that documented Sarimsakci's checkered business history and his plans to use foreign investors he wouldn't name.
After The News pressed him to divulge their identities, Sarimsakci said the money for the project would flow only from him and his U.S. partners. He said the Trump Organization was vetting potential investors in the deal.

1. So much winning.

He should change his brand name from 'tRump' brand to 'Shit' brand. Studies show that 91% of American consumers have more favorable associations with the latter name.
