Come To The Fair
This is a photograph of the first day of The Great American State Fair in Washington DC. The crowd looks a little sparse, but who knows maybe it picked up later in the day.
Here is a ferris wheel that looks nice, and an arch that looks out of place. Again not a lot of people visible.
I honestly hope that any American families who chose to make this their summer vacation have fun.

Inside state fair with Trump's 'cult-like' arch and entire section with no visitors
As if an overpriced state fair in the dead heat of summer was not bad enough, the Great American State Fair, hosted by Freedom 250, also allowed those who wanted to snap a picture with a model of the future Trumpian Arch took the MAGA-backed state fair to a whole new level.
Located at the intersection of Madison and 7th Street SW, the model of the arch served the dual purpose of sheltering those who needed a place from the scorching sun and providing a photo opportunity for those who wanted to get a photo with a smaller version of the future fixture in Washington, D.C.
While most of the attendees were absolutely THRILLED to have a photo opportunity with the upcoming landmark, to me, it was a great place to get out of the heat and balance out the humidity that made me feel sluggish all day. That being said, the arch was not built to withstand so many people, and eventually, we were packed like sizzling sardines.
I was not the only person to take issue with the arch's presence. "What is this Temu arch?" one person wrote on social media.
Low numbers
"Wtf is this cult-looking thing at the Trump State Fair in DC?" another user remarked, including a picture of the arch. Indeed, the laughable arch should be the least of Freedom 250's worries after the state fair failed to deliver a massive crowd. The National Mall, sitting between the U.S. Capitol and the Washington Monument, had, over several months, been transformed into a walkable experience that allowed guests — if they chose to show up — to visit the highlights of each state and territory.
However, the last part hit a bit of a snag: when I attended the Great American State Fair on opening day, there were virtually no participants There are, of course, the various tourists and passersby who managed to get through the extensive security measures; however, as President Donald Trump once claimed America was a "dead" country, I for certain say that this state fair was also "dead.".
Upon my entry, I saw a massive cluster of people in front of the Ferris wheel, which was possibly the only other attraction aside from the haphazardly placed rodeo pen. Most of the fairground was completely empty.
One person, who walked by me as I made my way to the non-air-conditioned press room, commented on the lack of people by remarking, "There are more news cameras here than people."
And boy, was he right. While I tried to keep an open mind bout the fair, who knows, maybe everyone will show up later when night has fallen, and the sun is no longer a worry. However, I would be remiss to point out that the only time I saw a decent-sized crowd was when the rodeo started, and many people — some of whom were old enough to be my grandfather — ran to the fence to be as close to the action as they could.
To add insult to injury, one section of the fair, which was devoted to the territories owned by the U.S., were completely devoid of human beings, save for a few people leaving one of the exhibits. A staffer with Freedom 250 told The Mirror U.S. that, "For a Thursday, it's a decent crowd."
Now he wants to put a giant golden clenched fist atop the arch...
SMH
Trump idolized HITLER; now it is Putin's derision that he kisses.
He will probably replace Lady Liberty with the Golden Eagle that sat atop Hitler's grand arch
found it!
Nah, he'll just gold plate her, put his name on the book she holds, and give her a combover.
Anyone know the video of the eagle being blown to bits?
found it
If attendance doesnt pick up, drastically, this will be yet another Trump fiasco as he takes all the joy out of the 4th of July.
If attendance doesn't pick up, who will he and Fox blame? The Box-Cutter Boys? The Barrack-Biden Brigade? Pizza-Gate Hilary and Man-Arms Michelle?
James Comey
You got it, RU4Real. Trump is not 4Real. He is...(Please add your suggestion).....!
My esteemed guess is that Trump is a Horse Putoota.
Under Trump rule, the options for scapegoating are endless. Their shit happens and gets explained away in such bizarre ways that you really can’t make this shit up. In the end, we’ll find out that the esotericism is a feature, not a bug, in the great grift. Place your bets on how fucking moronic his next headline will be, and who will be making money off of it through the betting apps.
Let it be so, oh Great Mighty one, splash eternal destruction upon the ORANGE PIG! It's the CHRISTIAN thing to do.
I couldnt find any photos of what the actual attractions at this thing are. If anyone sees any please post them.
Believe it or not, the web page promoting this fair does not contain a single photograph, or even an artists rendering.

They’re just being fiscally responsible by not spending on advertising. They need to save all they can to keep buying judges.
Federal judges have blocked at least 68 Trump administration actions during Trump’s second term
Why would someone "buy" activist judges to have their cases blocked?
a maga flea market of trump merchandise ...
temu probably sponsored the nazi and confederate flag booth ...
My "sauces" Ghouliani and Steve ("Never Takes a Bath") Bunions, Trump's former top advisors, and Butt Wipers claim there are no photos available because nothing exists in T-Diddy Rump's World of permanent chaos!
There probably isn't any attractions. That's why I bitched about him calling it a state fair in that other seed.
Where's the Blue Ribbon prized pig?
... in the oval office.
he wouldn't even get an honorable mention
Trump's State Fair (has he even been to one?) is going to be just like everything else Trump: A whole bunch of promotion and little else.
Doubt it, though believe it would be pretty fair to state how awesome it would be , ta see Trump staggering around his underground fare grounds that would allow him a fairly unfair dual citizen ship to sink, into that river
of deceit, where there is not a receipt, so from this river, no return...due too, no receipt....
Yes, on Epstein Island!
Of course not. I'm sure he avoided them on the campaign trail because, well, ya know....dirt
it was funny watching the national guard, or whoever, remove everyone from that PR disaster yesterday afternoon ...
yikes !
And not one black person gets a mention
There are some pretty cheesy photos of the various state "pavillions" at this CNN link

Don't knock Cape May unless you've visited it. It is a nice display and evokes memories of a youth...
Lol
I'm not attacking Cape May but this Pavilion doesn't look to me like something that people would travel long distance to see
Enjoyed that place as a youngster myself. Great ole memories. My parents friends had a big ole Victorian a few miles off the beach that provided great memories, and wee'd also go and smoke da weed under the boardwalk of nearby happening Wildwood before heading up quite stoned to N joy some fun and craziness on that very fun boardwalk.
Well we both probably have more stories about WildWood first than stoopid old cape May, lol.
Lot's of "firsts" in Wildwood by the Sea, 26th Street.
true. looks like a High School project
Isn't that "LOVERLY"? Hell, no it ain't, Arse Wipe!
I've seen more people at a garage sale.
