That's not what it was.
They announced it would be at the Four Seasons, but the Four Seasons is the fucking Four Seasons. You can't just drop by for the afternoon.
So after they'd committed to it being at the Four Seasons and not being able to get it at the Four Seasons, they held it at a place called Four Seasons Landscaping, and just fucking insisted that they had always intended to hold what they kept saying was such an important meeting at a landscaping company in New Jersey.
Also wrong. Giuliani picked the landscaping company because it was in one of the only red parts of Philly. Trump didn't understand and made a post just saying the press conference was at "Four Seasons" then followed it up with a post about the actual location later. And honestly, booking the place on purpose might be a sadder move than doing it by accident.
Agreed. Just saying that normal people would’ve popped into the local Hilton Garden Inn or Hyatt a grabbed one of those bland event rooms that local midsize businesses or city officials use for last minute gatherings. They’re basically an empty bland room with chairs, a podium, wifi and power outlets.
Probably could’ve had everyone in one of those in 2-3 hours.
But then they'd have to admit they couldn't get the Four Seasons.
This way they could claim everyone else was dumb for assuming it wasn't the landscaping company.
It's a small distinction but a thousand times worse. They literally couldn't believe they were weong
