Plenty of lawn space and short lines at Trump's Great American State Fair
- Thread starter Cypress

President Ford really knew how to put together an epic independence day festival.
The 1976 Bicentennial Festival in Washington, D.C., officially known as the Festival of American Folklife, was a massive 12-week event on the National Mall celebrating the nation's 200th birthday. Running from mid-June through Labor Day, it drew 4.5 million visitors and featured over 5,000 global and regional participants.

So far everything he's touched has turned to shit. Mostly because of the huge amount of vanity he injects into each project.

Do you think people appreciate what a fantastic job we did in building and operating the Great American State Fair at the National Mall, packed with happy people, and everybody loving it? Ask yourself this simple question, “DO YOU THINK THAT OBUMA OR SLEEPY JOE BIDEN COULD HAVE DONE IT?” THE...

One of my favorite parts was the power going out. Even the Ferris Wheel's generator failed. Everything Trump touches...
He's more of a circus barker, and this is is fifth rate circus. lol
It really does. And now even HE can see it, along with the entire planet.
I love this for him and his deplorable garbage cult.
I don't think he loves anyone but himself. The Cult is just there to reflect glory and acclaim on him, things he doesn't get otherwise, exc. from the hand-picked flunkies he surrounds himself with. I noticed that even his spokesBarbie Ms. Leavitt removed the cross necklace that she liked to exhibit. It burned her every time she defended #FatCaligula.
It had nothing to do with fucking Trump over, although that IS a worthy reason to cancel. In reality* they didn't want their reputations slimed by appearing to support #TheFailedFelon.
* Something you MAGATs struggle with.
We have our own state fair up here separate from the one downstate for the rest of Michigan. It's better attended than that hot mess. Even the cherry festival in Traverse City, near where @Jade Dragon lives is better attended. More fun, too.
Trump's trying to impose himself onto everything. He's desperate to dominate everything and make it about him. The problem is: No one sane wants anything to do with him.
Poor TA. He claims he's NOT a Trump worshipper. He's lying. Look at how upset he gets whenever his daddy trump fucks up. He's part of the cult.
How much did this fiasco cost the taxpayers? And are they charging just to get in?
I guess on some level he must know he's supporting the biggest loser, hence his faux protestations that he's NOT a Trumpanzee.
Just like everything trump's screwing up - we Americans are going to have to pay for it.
TA has enough self awareness to realize how bad trump and the republicans have screwed the world. His "binkee" is to pivot to: "But Biden". Then he cries "whataboutism" if we do the same thing, vis a vis trump.

And I'm the one that jaded you.
The cherry festival is swamped with tourists anymore. We avoid Traverse City when it takes place. When we were young, we used to go down to the beach with a cooler of goodies and an old blanket to put on the sand to watch the festival's fireworks. Even back then, you had to park a mile away and walk in. I can't even imagine what it's like now, even with the newer parking garage.
