Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc. (?Braemar?) issued a bizarre press congratulating Ashford?s ?victory? after stockholders voted out Chairman Monty J. Bennett and director Kamal Jafarnia, and both directors were forced to tender their resignations pursuant to Ashford?s corporate governance guidelines. But for Braemar and Ashford?s record as two of the most poorly performing REITs in America, this would all be quite comical.
