‘President Donald Trump’s failing Great American State Fair has suffered another public embarrassment.
The 16-day event on the National Mall was designed to kick off America’s 250th anniversary celebrations. However, Trump’s celebration continues to be plagued by bad luck, bad weather and bad attendance numbers.
Power cuts on day one of the State Fair saw ice cream in the food hall melt, while the Ferris wheel was also briefly out of action due to generator problems.
The drab weather has also made for a dreary spectacle.
On Friday, Vanilla Ice, the last artist standing among the string of musicians who axed playing concerts at the State Fair, had his show canceled due to “inclement weather.”
The elements also saw the State Fair temporarily closed on Sunday afternoon at around 2.00 p.m. However, a digital billboard alerting attendees featured an embarrassing typo in the name of the taxpayer-funded organization staging the event, adding bad spelling to their problems.
Stating that the fair had been postponed due to “severe weather” in reference to the extreme heat and rain in Washington, the billboard then told people to head to “Freeedom 250″ social media for more updates….’ (Cameron Adams via Yahoo News)
