I cringe to think what foreign visitors are thinking when they see this shoddy display of a fair, broken ferris wheel, empty booths, $24 turkey legs, C-list entertainment.
Even the Mexicans can organize a more epic independence celebration.

WASHINGTON – The Great American State Fair is underway at the National Mall to mark the United States' 250th birthday. But not everything is off to such a great start.
The event has quickly faced problems including power outages, melting ice cream – and a lack of representation from states that declined to send delegations.
While organizers assured visitors all parts of the nation would be represented, at least 10 states and territories refused to participate, with many citing the price tag to send staff to the 16-day event as their reason for opting out.

I love that your laser focused on Fox... you're going to learn a lot... You've never been to a fair have you?FOX is desperately trying to sell this shabby fair by talking up a pancake eating contest![]()
So if you don’t have a Fair, attend a Fair, or criticize a Fair, you are anti American?Fair food selection was great.

One of these days FOX may learn how to be a news channel.FOX has gone so far as to suggest viewers’ eyes are deceiving them when video of the event has showed mostly empty fields between booths on the National Mall.

Look here you anti American goofball, this isn't Trump's state fair, no, it's America's National State Fair in celebration of our 250th anniversary. There have been some 8 or 9 blue state leaders, mayors, governors that refuse to get anywhere near D.C. when people are there to celebrate the U.S.s founding. That shows you just how disrespectful and anti American most if not all dems have become or always have been.
Of course they are..... that's why you don't like them...
