Charity golf-tournaments, another core piece of the club’s business, have moved away: ESPN relocated its celebrity tournament. The L.A. Galaxy soccer team withdrew. The L.A. Unified School District also moved, forfeiting a $7,500 deposit it had already paid Trump’s course.
Hollywood, another source of revenue for the club, has largely stopped coming to film TV shows and movies, according to city permit records.
