How difficult could it be to divest from businesses that only have your name on their hotels? [View all]

Donald Trump doesn't own many of the buildings that carry his name. Why hasn't he divested from these businesses already?

Many of them are in foreign countries but many are in NYC and other places in this country. It seems it should be much easier to break from than buildings that are actually owned by Trump?

But, it appears that the billionaire "builder" doesn't want to divest from anything?
