Today, June 16th 2015, Donald J. Trumps has officially announced that he is running for president in the 2016 United States elections as a Republican candidate. Now I'm not here to tell whether he'll succeed or fail, but I can already predict one thing : the ACN fanboys will be (and probably are) all over this news.
I wish the best of luck to Mr. Trump, but let's not forget one thing : he is a businessman, not an ACN representative or even executive. He is a paid endorsement by ACN, a poster boy like Michael Jordan was for Nike. The exception is, Jordan actually used the product, Trump is not. But he showcased ACN's video phone on his Celebrity Apprentice show! Well sure he did, because he received a very good amount of money to do so. It's called product placement. In the event that Mr. Trump becomes president (let's be honest...), I am eager to see what will happen between him and the company; will they continue doing business together, or will he cut the ties?
To be continued..
Thanks
