Always heard that pigs were intelligent. . . .
I thought he was the main speaker.
😆 Benny “Big Bones” Carmichael had been “misled” about the celebration’s nonpartisan tone and could not in “good conscience” associate his name, likeness, and award-winning weight with the project. “Hog competitions are one of the last bastions of civility in our increasingly divided nation”!
Wow, I didn't think Steve Bannon would drop out.
Must have been an Independent!
Trump's "Great American State Fair" is turning into exactly the kind of disaster you'd expect...empty crowds, melting ice cream, Ferris wheel breakdowns, sky-high prices, and even a public indecency arrest. That and a whole lot more in today's bulletin:
No different than a weekend at Mar a Lago 🤡
#Bluecrew #Humor He will forever be remembered as America's monument to mediocrity, bombast, and disaster.
I live in the DC area and I have no intention of going. I would love to be excited to celebrate the 250th but I can't.
“public indecency”…? I thought Trump had immunity.
My wife: I am so glad we visited DC before Trump came in and wrecked it. Were thinking Philadelphia or Boston in July.
Is that the new Melania next to Trump?
Weep with me, for Vanilla Ice has cancelled his Freedom 250 concert at America’s State Fair. www.themirror.com/entertainmen...
I’m sure all his fan must be disappointed.
My fondest sympathies for your loss. Do you think maybe he's laying low because HE IS THE VANDAL???
I can't find my tiny violin- so I leave you this GIF instead...
Did we just abolish ICE?
sounds like they waxed a trump like a candle
Aw! Well he’s still got country music sensation Alexis Wilkins…
Vanilla Ice will be returned to his cryochamber for the 300 year celebration
Wasn't he the last guy? Are they gonna send Eric out to twirl a baton?
No ninja no ninja no.
An electoral system that twice gives the most powerful job in the world to someone who is beneath Vanilla Ice is not healthy.
Okay, so he has stopped. But is he going to collaborate or listen?
I was looking to checking out the hook while his DJ revolves it.
*rained out, vanilla ice did not suddenly become not vanilla ice > ...rapper brushed off fan concerns, telling TMZ "I don’t even vote, so I don’t even care." He also said that he would perform if former President Joe Biden. "I’ll go play for Putin and I’ll play in Iran if you want. It don’t matter"
Oh no. Ice won't be back with his brand new invention.
Looks like some-bo-dy forgot to collaborate and listen.
Trump’s “Great American State Fair” looks like a county fair that lost its funding halfway through construction. I love this for him.
I feel bad for those kids. The looks on their faces are finally realizing that they're in the weird family.
“The Great American State Fair” looks like a concept of a state fair. From someone who never set even one foot in a state fair. 😂😂😂
I think I had more people at my last garage sale.
Are my tax dollars paying for this? How many MRI’s is this costing America? How many school lunches or infrastructure repairs? Absolutely ridiculous! He’s probably charging and pocketing the ticket money!
He'll order the National Guard into civies to make it look busy
Besides empty booths, the event has also been troubled by electrical problems, forcing the Ferris wheel, one of the fair's main attractions, to shut down and also melting the entire supply of ice cream. Could it be the same vandals that ruined The Reflecting Pool?
Trump's Great American State Fair is as empty as Trump's jockstrap.
There’s nothing to celebrate, July 4th is a day of mourning as it stands now.
Amen brother! I don't care if you're a social Democrat, an old Southern Democrat, an Independent or somewhere in between. Please join the team and vote blue!
🎯💯 During our federal and provincial elections, 2/3 of us sane Canadians🇨🇦 implored our fellow citizens to: #VoteCountryOverParty Because sometimes it's necessary to vote for the other party in order to right the ship.
Republicans out here controlling all three branches of government claiming that elections are broken and stolen is rich af bs.
Absolutely. And if a democrat is bad, primary them. But still put a broken democrat in over any republican. Not participating is only giving power to republicans.
History has dictated, for centuries, empires have fallen, every 250 yrs. This 250 American mark is next month. Rather than anniversary of democracy, it's the humbling of America. Defy imminent failure. WE are given the chance, take it. Vote for what is best regardless of who. Get stable for change.
These are the not so great exhibits from Maryland, Virginia and DC at Trump’s Crappy American fair.
It’s like a Science Fair, without the science
It looks like a grade school history expo. "And here, Shelby recreated the Washington Monument using only macaroni, corn starch and water. Isn't it grand?"
Created by Four Seasons Affordable Conference Booths and Landscaping
I've seen better exhibits at a high school science fair.
Where’s the paper mache volcano with the baking soda and vinegar eruption?
Are there better ones? Boring! It starts with a B not a lot of people know that.
Trump’s “Great American State Fair” after ONE day: ❌ Power outage melted the ice cream ❌ Ferris wheel broke down ❌ 10 states boycotted ❌ Crowd bailed during Trump’s speech He can’t even run a county fair. 🎪 #USDemocracy #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/212395/...
Trump is one failure after another but unfortunately we the tax payers are left with his bill.
Trump only cares about minors.
The King of Fail, has failed yet again.
TWO power outages. Food priced higher than restaurants. ($23 for a TURKEY LEG)
I’ve been to state fairs in at least a dozen states, and everything I see out of this one looks like it was designed by people who have never been to a single one.
I see absolutely zero deep fried butter on a stick. We used to be a country.
There is a butter cow puddle there somewhere because they forgot temp control Butter statuary garden
I've been to tractor shows in deep rural Iowa counties with less population than a small suburban that were better attended than this.
that looks bleak as hell. Banksy did it better. www.thisiscolossal.com/2015/08/dism...
It's so funny that all these guys who claim to be and speak for "Real America" seem to have never been in it.
Like everything with these people it is empty and hollow. They may attempt to plaster on a veneer of authenticity, but in the end it's just a poor replica of the real thing.
Motion to change the name of the Great American State Fair to “The Daily Humiliation of Donald Trump, and Ferris Wheel.”
It’s coming down to this…
This just in: Ferris Wheel has issued a statement saying that it will be at the Illinois State Fair that day.
How is it a state fair when it is not in a state? (endless scream)
The only useful purpose his high school art project mini Arch served was to provide shade for bored fair goers.
we are a week away from the 4th of July and our glorious leader has walled off half the National Mall and is hosting the saddest fair of all time on the other half Happy 250th!
can we just collectively agree to change America's birthday to 1789 and run it back in ten years? we deserve a mulligan
everything about the Trump Administration is infused with FyreFest energy but this is a little on the nose
Land of the free and the home of the brave baby!
The fifa fan fest is pretty good but it’s hot
The Affordability President delivers! ….$9 lemonade, $23 turkey legs, and $25 pretzels. (No actual delivery included). #RadioFreeAmerica #politics newrepublic.com/post/212401/...
When you’re double the price of Disneyland, you’re fckn up
judging from the photo it looks like there are about 40 marks at this mess
Utterly fails at organizing a small county fair. Not surprising.
It's so quintessentially American. 'Hand me one of them Patriot Pretzels...Freedom derp derp derp 'Murica'
Wow, I couldn't afford to go.
"People don't care about affordability" "Affordability is an invented word."
Politics aside (if possible), a Great American State Fair was a legit good idea. Let's file it away for 2076. If there is an America then.
Maybe by then you'll be burning effigies of Trump like we do for Guy Fawkes.
Nah, if the motherfucker’s still alive we do it in 2030, get everyone between the ages of 25 and 65 with a platinum record to play, and make Kimmel or Colbert Master of Ceremonies. It’ll be attended by 3 million people over the course of a week and it’ll cause him deep, existential humiliation.
2076? By then we'll have different problems
Trump’s state fair is looking more like a pop up carnival in the parking lot at the Piggly Wiggly
Even Piggly Wiggly has corndogs! 😱
The Four Seasons State Fair?
The Pig is sure Wiggly-ing
That's definitely the vibe I've been getting.
It’s main attraction isn’t bringing in the crowds either
You shouldn't build it up to much. I don't even think they have a bouncy house. They do have a house of horror, you go in and Stephen Miller explains his vision of the future till your brain melts and you dig out your eyeballs to shove them into your ears to make it stop.
After Donald Trump watched fans walk out of the opening rally at his Great American State Fair on the Washington Mall, things have not gotten much better.
"A cow named Melania" I... ... ...I got nothin'.
Perverse that the conductor of the Jan 6th seditious attack on our Capitol & agitator doing all he can to rig the midterms, is the ring-leader of the USA's 250th birthday celebration, marking a quarter of a militia of existence for a political system he's determined to overthrow.
Of course it went to shit. Trump organized it.
The description sure works for me.
A cow named Melania. 🤣
