I haven't been to Trumpp's in a few years. It was OK, but not as good as the Penthouse Club, which is also on 8 Mile. The club added a second "p" to make it clear that it was not owned by Donald Trump. Being associated with something so dirty, sleazy and nasty is not in the best interests of a Detroit strip club.
Well thanks for clarifying that jackslash. I think they should have maybe gone another direction though and changed the name to Humpp's. People in the "D" will still associate the club with "the Donald" since there are no Golden Arches !
Trumpp's is not owned by the Donald, unless he has a hidden interest somewhere in the ownership. It's been on 8 Mile road, forever. It was a good place, it declined. It was refurbished. I haven't been there in ages, although I do drive by it from time to time. My money goes to The Penthouse Club a few miles to the East.
Down here in Miami there is a small black club that since the 1980s went by Rolexx – the club changed its name to Lexx at some point in the early 2000s according to a dancer b/c the watch company made them change the name – about a year ago it changed owners and now goes by Climaxxx.
I used to work at that place before I switched over to the club I work at now. Trumpps is owned by Subi. When it first opened (late 80s?) and for a while later, it was owned by Alan Markowitz, the same guy who owns Flight Club, Penthouse, and now Coliseum.
If it was owned by Donald Trump it probably wouldn't have two P's.
