Trump tussled with Los Angeles school board over historical hotel
Donald Trump had a bitter public feud with the LAUSD school board over the Ambassador Hotel, where he wanted to build a 125-story office tower. The site of the Robert F. Kennedy assassination in 1968 was preserved and is now the site of six autonomous pilot schools serving more than 3,000 students.
