      Totally true. They thought they gave the media the address to the “Four Seasons,” but everyone showed up to “Four Seasons Total Landscaping” and these nutters decided not to cancel or move to another venue.

      They gave a bizarre press conference at a landscaping company sandwiched between a crematorium and sex shop.

        I thought the hotel denied them the space so they asked the landscaping company if they could do it there so they wouldn’t have to admit they were denied the space

            Options were to find a new venue / time and admit an honest mistake, or so the weird Trump thing, never admit error, and claim they intended to book a rando landscaping company next to a sex shop.

              That was unsurprisingly the sex shops biggest sales day they’ve ever had. Sold out of pegging and bdsm items within minutes after the rally. The crematorium also got a couple extra sales from the old folks having heart attacks from rage.

        Lol.

        Probably an innocent mistake.

        I’ve made innocent mistakes and busted my ass to correct them, out of loyalty to my employer, after they were loyal to me.

        I can’t imagine why that didn’t happen here…(This is sarcasm. I actually have a pretty good guess why.)

          The mistake makes total sense. The decision to follow through with the press conference was weird AF though.

          People do emergency press conferences in random hotel event rooms all the time. Those are incredibly easy to book in at the last minute.
