Reality is not trolling.

Dump is going to froth his diapers in rage and try to get her fired for this
Is it really trolling to make factual statements?
Journalism == trolling. Nobody told you?
You can troll with facts, yes. Trolling is more about intent and tone than accuracy or objectivity.
Reality has long had a liberal bias.
Following his speech, the president is planning on setting off fireworks for 40 minutes in an attempt to break the world record for fireworks. Firework manufacturers have said this will cost many millions of dollars, but the White House is yet to disclose exactly how much they are spending and how they obtained the funds.
Those USAID funds, and funding for dozens of other programs, aren't going where they're legally supposed to anymore, so probably from there.
Nah they've already spent those funds, u said was cut months ago
Is 40 minutes really considered a world record for fireworks? I remember being in Japan and they were going on for what felt like more than an hour at least
Almost certainly not. The labor day fireworks they shoot off in Cincinnati every year last at least that long.
First comment on the article, “that’s not ‘trolling’ - that's reporting”
Damn straight.
My bosses at work who are 60+ all remember how great the 200th was. Everyone voted trump and everyone is disappointed beyond belief at how bad this 250th is.
Her reporting isn't trolling.
The Independent running the article after the faire was closed for heat today and therefore no one is there, is next level trolling and im here for it.
You're right, it's terrorism. Or will be declared as such soon enough, mark my words. The days of free speech in the U.S. are numbered.
It would be funny if it wasn't actually sad.
Some probably refused to come out of spite but many probably couldn't afford to come and at the moment can't afford to go anywhere.
A lot of people probably simply aren't interested in going to an outdoor event during a record-breaking heatwave.
Especially not to see:
-
A bunch of mostly-empty booths for each state, which aren't even affiliated with the governments of those states, many of which (reportedly) feature only a stamp to collect to show you've been there, and nothing else
-
A cheap mockery of greco-roman architecture executed in the medium of plywood facades on top of white plastic tents
-
A succession of 4th-rate bands and performers nobody has heard of on a small stage
-
A ferris wheel that (reportedly) is out of order about 50% of the time
That would be disappointing and not really worthwhile even if the weather was beautiful for it, even if it wasn't strongly associated with a would-be fascist dictator and well-known pedophile.
Oh yeah, and to top it off, it's in the middle of DC, which is a pretty liberal city. Not exactly teeming with Trump's target audience.
It's disappointing and not worthwhile because the would-be fascist dictator and well-known pedophile decided to make it about him and drove away everyone competent to make it fun.
They’ve only had a heatwave recently. The fair was poorly attended before the heatwave.
There was an event down the road that had considerable people at it. So the heat excuse kinda falls flat.

Why did they decide on calling it a "State Fair" anyway? Wouldn't it have made more sense to call it The National Fair?
Are they asking the booths how much foot traffic they need to justify the state expenditure to be there? Because they are wasting taxpayer money to be bored and hot currently.

It would be a pittance compared to the billions Trump is stealing from taxpayers. At least the people paid to run the booths are regular people and not billionaires.
My state spent zero tax dollars on this campaign rally, but apparently we had a table. Someone from a Trump organization drove down there and manned a table in our name
And, another video of the speaker series shows former Bachelor contestant turned Evangelical preacher, Madi Prewitt Trout, speaking to a near-empty audience.
Geez you’d think that’d have been a doorbuster.
Boy, I sure do love an article about a video without a link to the video. I hope that it's just my ad blocker not letting it be shown or something.
Will there be more visitors than degrees Fahrenheit at Trumps speech today?
I really wanted to watch the video but maybe because I'm on moving, that site is a shit show. The ads interrupt the video every few seconds.
Controversies surrounding the fair included a Confederate Flag hanging in the North Carolina booth
Great job, North Carolina. We appreciate you letting us know in no uncertain terms to avoid you when planning to travel. Too bad, cause it's a beautiful part of the country.
