Stephen Ross still experiencing backlash from his T-rump fundraiser last week


Billionaire Stephen Ross is still experiencing the backlash from his T-rump fundraiser in The Hamptons last weekend.

For the week leading up to the controversial fundraiser, hundreds of celebrities and other notables dropped their memberships to his associated 'healthclub' businesses, including Equinox Fitness, SoulCycle and Blink Fitness. (A boycott of the businesses were also organized).

Real estate agents reported that potential buyers at Ross' multi-million dollar development 'Hudson Yards' in Manhattan were turning away since news of the fundraiser, costing Ross millions in lost revenue.

And now, two major fashion houses have decided not to premiere their NY FASHION WEEK shows at The Shed in Hudson Yards, and have chosen other venues in the city. More fashion houses are expected to follow suit before the event kicks off on September 6. This will be yet another major loss of revenue for Ross.
