What Caused This Airbnb Guest to Cancel Her Reservation? http://livelaughlovedo.com/culture-and-society/what-caused-this-airbnb-guest-to-cancel-her-reservation/ http://livelaughlovedo.com/culture-and-society/what-caused-this-airbnb-guest-to-cancel-her-reservation/#respond Fri, 18 Jul 2025 22:09:35 +0000 http://livelaughlovedo.com/2025/07/19/what-caused-this-airbnb-guest-to-cancel-her-reservation/ [ad_1]

An Airbnb host says one of her guests took one look at a Trump flag in the yard and left without even unpacking.

Featured Video

The host, who runs the TikTok account @outskirtsofheavenfarm, explained that the woman had booked a stay at her animal rescue and sanctuary but canceled almost immediately after arriving. The reason, she said, was political.

“She got in her car, drove away, and left,” the host said in the clip, which has now been viewed over 1.5 million times. “There was no way she could stay somewhere like this,” the guest allegedly told her after spotting a flag supporting President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

The video’s caption read, “We worked all day preparing for our farm Airbnb guest only for her to get here and leave,” while the text overlay bluntly stated: “Airbnb guest cancels in first 5 minutes.”

The host didn’t hide her frustration, saying she’d spent the entire day prepping the space, only for the trip to unravel before it even began.

Airbnb host defends signage 

In the comments section, @outskirtsofheavenfarm pushed back at critics and defended the flag.

She noted that her farm is in North Carolina, a state that voted for Trump in both 2020 and 2024, and said she was surprised the guest would be so bothered. “If I went somewhere and there were Biden signs, I wouldn’t care,” she wrote. “So crazy to me.”

She added that people “need to just calm down” and asked, “Who cares about a sign?”

The host also clarified that the Trump-Vance flag isn’t even on the Airbnb building itself and said listing photos make its presence clear. In another comment, she suggested the guest wouldn’t be getting a refund.

Trump and Airbnb rentals

Though this wasn’t the same situation, Trump’s name has come up in Airbnb controversies before. Back in 2017, shortly after Trump’s first election, an Asian American woman named Dyne Suh said her reservation was canceled by a host who made racist remarks.

Suh had booked a cabin in Big Bear, California, and confirmed with the host that she could bring two extra friends. But when she messaged again shortly before arrival to double-check, the host accused her of being a “con artist” and canceled.

“I wouldn’t rent to u if u were the last person on earth,” the host reportedly wrote. “One word says it all. Asian.”

Suh pulled over during a snowstorm to regroup and ended up speaking with a KTLA news crew about the ordeal. She later shared the story in a tearful Facebook post and confirmed she and her friends eventually found shelter.

Airbnb permanently removed the host from its platform and called the behavior “abhorrent and unacceptable,” reiterating its non-discrimination policy.

@outskirtsofheavenfarm We worked all day preparing for our Farm Airbnb Guest only for her to get here and leave within the first 5 Mins !!! #fyp #viralvideo #fypシ #trump ♬ original sound – Outskirts of Heaven Farm

Viewers weigh in

While the guest hasn’t spoken publicly, the implication in the host’s video was clear, and TikTok commenters had plenty to say. Some defended the woman’s decision to leave, saying she had every right to choose accommodations that aligned with her values.

“You chose to put your values in full view,” one viewer told the host. “So did she.”
“It’s about morals and character,” another added. “She stood on hers.”

“You’re free to make your own decisions, but not free from the consequences of those decisions,” said a third.

Others who said they would’ve done the same chimed in too.

“I would not feel safe there, either,” one woman wrote.

“Hope she mentions it in her review, because I would also want to know beforehand,” another added. 

“I would cancel, too,” a third said. “That is a hate sign.”

But not everyone agreed. Some called the reaction over the top.

“You dodged a bullet, girlfriend,” one TikTok user told the host.

“People are so triggered by the dumbest stuff,” another wrote. “I mean, it’s a sign.”

@outskirtsofheavenfarm echoed that sentiment, replying, “Totally agree!!! And I forgot it was even there. Been there for so long!!”

A self-described Democratic Socialist – NYC’s next mayor http://livelaughlovedo.com/finance/a-self-described-democratic-socialist-could-be-nycs-next-mayor-and-the-ultra-rich-are-in-revolt-hot-commie-summer/ http://livelaughlovedo.com/finance/a-self-described-democratic-socialist-could-be-nycs-next-mayor-and-the-ultra-rich-are-in-revolt-hot-commie-summer/#respond Sat, 28 Jun 2025 10:32:10 +0000 http://livelaughlovedo.com/2025/06/28/a-self-described-democratic-socialist-could-be-nycs-next-mayor-and-the-ultra-rich-are-in-revolt-hot-commie-summer/ [ad_1]

Billionaires are outraged after self-described Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani defeated establishment candidate Andrew Cuomo to become the Democratic nominee in New York City’s mayoral race.

The 33-year-old Mamdani was, until recently, a little-known state assembly member and came into the Democratic primary as an underdog, unlikely to surmount former Gov. Cuomo’s brand recognition and billionaire backers. But his proposals—which included rent freezes, free bus fare, and city-owned grocery stores—ultimately resonated with New Yorkers who have faced rising rents and heaps of economic pain in one of the most expensive cities in the world.

Mamdani has all but clinched the nomination after Cuomo conceded the race this week, and because of his Democratic Socialist label and controversial proposals, billionaires have rushed to paint the young politician as a threat to business, democracy, and the Democratic Party. Many of the billionaires protesting also lost financially, donating to “Fix the City,” a nonprofit group that received about $25 million in donations and spent loads on pro-Cuomo ads and anti-Mamdani ads, per Business Insider.

Here are some of the loudest (and richest) voices attacking Mamdani after his landmark win. 

Bill Ackman (Net worth $8.09 billion)

One of the loudest voices condemning Mamdani is activist investor and hedge fund manager Bill Ackman. Ackman, who founded Pershing Square Capital Management, let loose on Mamdani in one of his characteristic posts on X

In response to Mamdani’s win, the hedge funder said he and his allies would saturate New York City’s election with donations to try to defeat him. 

After calling Mamdani “young and charming,” Ackman criticized him for his comments about the New York Police Department, and his proposals for rent freezes and city-owned grocery stores. He also claimed a Mamdani mayoral victory would push big business to exit New York. 

“Socialism has no place in the economic capital of our country,” wrote Ackman on X. “The ability for NYC to offer services for the poor and needy, let alone the average New Yorker, is entirely dependent on NYC being a business-friendly environment and a place where wealthy residents are willing to spend 183 days and assume the associated tax burden.”

Ackman also promised hundreds of millions of dollars of funds “will pour in,” if the right candidate to oppose Mamdani appears.

Elon Musk (Net worth $368 billion)

Now essentially on the sidelines of government after running President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, Tesla CEO Elon Musk still found time to chime in on Mamdani’s win, even if he held back major criticism. 

In several comments reacting to other users’ tweets on X, Musk made his skepticism about Mamdani known. Musk commented a laughing emoji in reaction to another user’s post criticizing Mamdani saying “queer liberation means defund the police.” 

John Catsimatidis (Net worth $4.5 billion) 

The billionaire founder of the Gristedes grocery chain threatened to move the company out of New York should Mamdani win the NYC mayoral election. Catsimatidis threatened to move the company’s corporate offices to New Jersey.

“If the city of New York is going socialist, I will definitely close, or sell, or move or franchise the Gristedes locations,” Catsimatidis told Fox Business.

Catsimatidis also took issue with Cuomo and the way he ran his campaign. 

“It’s not a done deal, but Cuomo screwed up real big because he tried to do what President Biden did and hide in the basement for two months,” Catsimatidis told Forbes.

However, the grocery chain magnate said Trump may be able to help current New York City mayor Eric Adams beat out Mamdani in the general election in November. Adams has vowed to run as an independent.

Dan Loeb (Net worth $3.2 billion) 

Dan Loeb, the billionaire founder of hedge fund Third Point, donated $250,000 to support “Fix the City,” which backed Cuomo. 

After Mamdani’s presumptive win, Loeb criticized New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s comment calling Mamdani’s campaign a “formidable grassroots coalition.”

“For anyone who had a doubt that our Governor is a clueless, unqualified buffoon,” Loeb said in a post on X.

Loeb also cheekily declared that “It’s officially hot commie summer.”
