'We have fallen so low': Analyst laments 'dark moment' of Trump's 'ridiculous' state fair
A political analyst lamented the "dark moment" that is President Donald Trump's Great American State Fair, a 16-day festival at the National Mall organized by a Trump-linked entity called "Freedom 250," during a new podcast interview on Sunday. Jon Lovett, co-host of "Pod Save America" and a former speechwriter for President Barack Obama, discussed the state fair on a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" with host Joanna Coles. He noted that attendance is low amid a heatwave across the East Coast and that several attractions at the event aren't working as advertised. While those issues were almost expected, Lovett noted that the event itself also casts a shadow over the nation's upcoming 250th birthday. "It’s a rare moment where you could have actually had a beautiful, like American patriotic celebration. I’ll be cringe and say that I’m sad that we don’t get to have that,” Lovett said. “But instead, we have this ridiculous, incompetent boob.”Lovett also pointed out that several attractions at the state fair were in poor condition. “The Ferris wheel isn’t working. The Reflecting Pool is green, the ice cream is melting, and nobody’s showing up. States feel like they should cancel, and they’re right to do so. Nobody wants to be associated with this guy. And it’s just a big bummer," he said. "I know it’s just a party, and we've got bigger fish to fry, but I do think it’s okay to take a moment and say, you know what? Like this is a dark moment, and it is a shame that we have fallen so low that this is what it would look like to forever, for how we marked an important milestone in the history of the country,” Lovett added.

GOP lawmakers 'accidently' expose Trump's 'political vanity project' as major flop: report
A handful of GOP lawmakers made their way to Washington, D.C. recently to attend and promote the Great American State Fair, organized by the President Donald Trump-linked group Freedom 250, but in doing so, “accidentally” exposed the event for its numerous shortcomings, The Daily Beast reported.Rep. Michael Baumgartner (R-WA), for instance, took to social media to attack his own state’s government for not participating in the fair, posting a photograph online of himself standing on the National Mall lawn. The “awkward post,” the Beast noted, depicted Baumgartner standing in front of “only a handful of people visible behind him.”Other GOP lawmakers engaged in similar “self-owns,” as the Beast described them. Rep. Blake Moore (R-UT) posted a video online from the fair asking Americans to attend the event, but in a manner in which he “all but [begged] people to let his office help them get there.” The video also “came with the unfortunate visual aid of Moore standing in an almost empty park, with an empty Ferris wheel turning behind him,” the Beast’s report reads.“Contact our office if there’s any help that you need to organize things or tours or get more information,” Moore said in the video he published online. “Please, please reach out. We’d love to help out in that way.”The Great American State Fair faced challenges weeks before it opened to the public last week after artists backed out of the event en masse after learning of its connections to Trump. In the four days since opening, the fair has been plagued with power failures that stalled a Ferris wheel and melted ice cream supplies.Investigative reporter Eric Flack also revealed that the state exhibits at the fair ranged wildly in quality, with some states’ exhibits amounting to two chairs in a small, shared booth.
