President Trump's carefully constructed vision for transforming the nation's capital is literally falling apart. The Great American State Fair, meant to showcase his grandiose architectural ambitions, has spiraled into a three-day disaster of musical acts boycotting, equipment failures, tiny crowds and now a deteriorating replica arch buckling under less-than-ideal weather conditions.
According to New York Times reporting, the centerpiece of Trump's fair—a scaled-down version of his proposed 250-foot "Triumphal Arch"—is already showing signs of structural failure. The vinyl covering, stapled over a wood frame and emblazoned with "One Nation Under God," had begun "buckling" under the combined assault of high temperatures, humidity, and rain.
The arch represents Trump's broader vision for the nation's capital: a planned White House ballroom, renovated golf courses, and the repainting and sealing of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool – all of which have come under scrutiny and criticism.
Three days into a 16-day event, Trump's showcase for his ambitions is becoming another debacle, with sparse attendance under a sweltering sun, power failures disabling the Ferris wheel for hours, and a cancelled concert by headliner Vanilla Ice with days still to run.

Weather, that noted far-left-wing vandal, has it out for the Big Orange Fascist Pig's spectacular arch, which the American people want so badly for the greatest president, EVER!
ICE agents will be coordinating attacks on every weather-room in the good old U.S. of A. tomorrow morning, and meteorologists better watch their asses if they know what's good for them. 😡
This thing was designed by Albert Pee-er.
How loving and American is that?!?.
Some lady was getting baptized, lots or Christian related themes and booths as well. Most booths had a table and 2 chairs and a sign written on cardboard and WE had OUR tax dollars pay for this Shit Show!!!!! The cold hamburgers were spoiling when the electricity died and still were costing $27 each. Families sat on concrete or pavement since there were no places built for people to sit and eat at and the entertainment was a lesson on lassoing a chair. Woohoo!
Spent my share of sweltering days in Phila, so stay cool, BRDS. 
and into the afternoon.
