You can think whatever you want.... but you would be wrong
What kind of "fair" doesn't have funnel cakes, corn dogs, cotton candy, and the only ride is a tiny ferris wheel?

Trump can't fix a pool, can't organize a great Fair, and can't win a war of choice.
He's like a mentally-challenged engineer. He takes things that aren't broke - claim they're broken - destroy them - then fail trying to fix them - fails then who get's the blame?
You guessed it: Biden or Obama

Food Prices and Selection at the Trump Fair Are Not for the Faint-Hearted
President Donald Trump has made it clear he doesn’t care about high prices—even at his own Great American State Fair.
Attendees at the first day of the president’s festival were disappointed to discover that what few food options were actually open were far from cheap.
USA Today reported that the only food stall open on Thursday sold turkey legs for $23—almost twice the price of the same offering from a Disney theme park. The stall also offered smashburgers and giant Western sausage sandwiches for $20, and lemonade for a whopping $9.
Online, people were particularly outraged by the price of a stuffed pretzel roll—which ranged from $12.48 to $24.96.
One attendee wasn’t impressed by the offerings at the Express Hibachi stand, which offered pizzas and salads for $13 to $14, boneless wings for $15, and rice bowls for $16.
“Do you see a single corndog? No! It’s a tragedy. It’s an affront to American culture,” joked political commentator Alex Cascio.
D.C. Councilmember Christina Henderson also expressed her disappointment in the fair’s offerings. “Not a funnel cake, corn dog, bucket lemonade, or fried Snickers in sight. The only ride is the Ferris Wheel,” Henderson wrote on X. “It’s not that kind of state fair, y’all.”

Who the heck is Clair dunn?
I haven't seen any success.
I'll grant you the unemployed liberal arts majors, but the trailer trash is almost exclusively MAGA.
That looks like a violation of the establishment clause, wouldn't you say?

Exclusive: Here's what's on the menu at D.C.'s Great American State Fair
Corn dogs, competitive eating and "Make America Healthy Again" wellness are coming to the National Mall this week for the Great American State Fair.
Why it matters: The menu offers one of the clearest looks yet at what Freedom 250 organizers are planning for the Great American State Fair: part nostalgia, part America 250th celebration and part showcase for the MAHA movement.
Driving the news: Yes, there will be stick meat. There will also be seminars on "food as medicine."
- The food lineup at the World's Fair-inspired exhibition is an unusual mashup of classic Americana and MAHA wellness that Freedom 250 is billing "a once-in-a-generation culinary snapshot of the nation."
- Festival bites: Corn dogs, jumbo chicken on a stick, loaded mac and cheese, Chicago- and New York-style pizza, cheesy fries with Hatch queso.
- Classic American eats: Burgers, hot dogs, Italian sausages, wings, popcorn, pretzels and fry buckets.
- Global fare: Elote, yucca fries with aji dipping sauce, teriyaki chicken, Thai iced coffees and teas.
- Local eats: Lucky Buns burgers, Chop Shop sandwiches (Peruvian-style chicken, red curry panang), and Get Baked Pretzels.
- Sweet treats: Ice cream, sno cones, Italian ice, cookies, lemonade.
The intrigue: Culinary programming mixes eating competitions with MAHA discussions about what Americans should be eating.
- Farm to Fair (June 26): Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins joins Ambassador Monica Crowley and five multigenerational farm families for a showcase of American agriculture, food production and land stewardship. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum is also expected to participate.
- MAHA Mondays (June 29 and July 6): Programming devoted to "the food-as-medicine movement," featuring viral Judy's Pancakes, a beverage demo by influencer "Holistic Hilda," Polyface Farm's Joel Salatin, RFK Jr. aide Calley Means, and Steak 'n Shake's "chief MAHA officer."
- Cowboy Poetry and Country Roots (June 29): Clare Dunn, a rancher and country artist, will appear alongside Shad Sullivan, a fifth-generation cattle rancher and co-host of "Lonesome Land," who will deliver cowboy poetry. John Klar, an author, attorney and "MAHA farmer," also appears.
The absence of classic fair foods—like corn dogs, funnel cakes, and fried Snickers—at the Great American State Fair on the National Mall has sparked heavy online criticism. Visitors have mocked the event for lacking traditional state fair staples, with sparse crowds and a highly politicized atmosphere overshadowing the festivities. [1, 2]
Fair Details and Criticism
- The Food: Attendees have voiced frustration over the lack of traditional junk food. There are no funnel cakes, bucket lemonades, or fried desserts, and standard food offerings have reportedly been limited or plagued by issues like power outages. [1, 2]
- The Atmosphere: Originally conceived as a bipartisan celebration of American history and culture, the event on the National Mall has been heavily co-opted by Donald Trump's "Freedom 250" group. [1, 2]
- State Participation: While each state has a designated booth, seve
- ral states—including Massachusetts and North Carolina—declined to officially participate, leaving many exhibits empty. [1]
- Attractions: Entertainment is sparse compared to traditional state fairs. The only ride available is a Ferris wheel, and exhibits are largely dominated by conservative institutions and religious revival tents rather than agricultural or livestock displays. [1, 2]
