We Tell New Yorkers Donald Trump Bought Lincoln Center

A condo on the Upper West Side of NYC won a judgement to have Donald Trump's name removed from their building. Trump has his name on a lot of stuff and that fact inspired us to have fun with another landmark on the Upper West Side. We wanted to see what would happen if we told people there was a place where Trump's name was going up, so we set up shop outside of Lincoln Center and told people passing by that it is going to be re-named 'Trump Center' because he bought it. And they bought it too. #KimmelinBrooklyn

[Tolu]

"I feel like I can hear western civilisation crumbling as we speak" quote that sums up 2018

[codeplaysgames]

"I feel like I can hear western Civilization crumbling..." You laughed in 2018, now you cry in 2020.

Love how every NYer is like “No. Unacceptable.”
So proud of my fellow NYers!

[lauraberger]

"You eat on paper plates, how is that fancy?"- LOL

[theapplianceguru]

"You eat off paper plates, hows that fancy?!" 😂😂😂 I'm wheezing

[Wompwompwomp.ny]

Everyone agrees on the bowling alley😂😂😂😂

[joshcabrera]

Best reaction "Is that Kentucky Friend XD

[nickwille]

maybe they should explain more what lincoln center is for the viewers, most people don't know new york infrastructure

[seaninness]

"...he looks like KFC..." I love her😍

[ulyssescampos]

Let him Eat It!! HE LOOKS LIKE KFC! *"Russian Accent"*

[hakan]

Nobody talked about the fact that the name of Abraham Lincoln would be replaced by the name of Donald trump.

[theboys]

If your looking to start a business I would suggest creating a bowling alley.

[keon-clarke]

"Let him eat it, he looks like KFC."😂😂😂

[kingsik]

1:40... God her facial expressions was gold🤣🤣🤣

[mxhong]

They should've added a stripper pole in the artist's rendering.

[thecooljohn]

Sounds like these New Yorkers really want a bowling alley! Give them what they want! Let the people bowl!

[amorrissey]

"Don't put a bowling alley in a place where people come to enjoy themselves" 😂😂 she sounds like a lot of fun!

Interesting reactions. They don't care about the memory of a former president of the USA, but hey: Is this a KFC? An italian restaurant where you eat from paper plates? And we have to get used to a new name? OMGDDFG!!!
I like those videos. Thanks.

I'm born and raised in Queens but I still laugh at these coastal elites. So pretentious.
