An Anti-Trump rally at D.C.'s Old Post Office Building on Pennsylvania Avenue and 12th Street, NW.

Whether he wins the presidential election or not, Trump is coming to Pennsylvania Avenue. The Trump Hotel is scheduled to open this Fall at the site of the Old Post Office Building, and with its ultra-expensive rooms and luxurious details, it marks a departure from the current hospitality atmosphere in the District. Trump’s politics- both in style and ideology- are similarly distinct from D.C.’s local status quo. With the Republican National Convention underway in Cleveland, we explore how the style and politics of presidential candidate Donald Trump would fit in with D.C.’s local politics and culture.
