To think the Four Seasons Total Landscaping farce is the funniest thing to have happened in 2020

I’m still laughing about this.

Trump’s people thought they were booking the Four Seasons hotel in Philadelphia for his big presser yesterday, and it turned out to be the Four Seasons Total Landscaping parking lot between a dildo store and a crematorium where Rudy Giuliani had to then speak. Surreal, but yet somehow a fitting end to the last 4 years of buffoonery.

It’s just so fabulous. It’s had me giggling since yesterday.

FunnyInjury · 08/11/2020 09:55

Bungling incompetence as we've come to expect from Trumps corner!

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 08/11/2020 09:56

It's certainly up there Grin But there's also Farage's £10,000 bet...

This is a good write up here.

I really needed a good laugh this weekend.

Haha, just gets better and better

LastInTheQueue · 08/11/2020 09:58

This really made me laugh this morning, and watching Rudy G answering questions while trying to ignore the backdrop made my day!

Bmidreams · 08/11/2020 09:58

I just can't believe it's actually true!! Madness!

aabidah86 · 08/11/2020 09:59

So so good!

sleepwhenidie · 08/11/2020 10:00

This was the scene Grin
Have you seen the reviews people have put on the website? They are hilarious (though I do feel a bit sorry for the company)...mostly along these lines

Actually, no, yours is funnier. The tweets in this article Grin

The best writers of comedy couldn’t have done better than this

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 08/11/2020 10:01

Sorry, @Zandathepanda beat me!

My favourite tweet:

“This is not over. For we shall mount our righteous stand at Four Seasons Total Landscaping. Next to Fantasy Island Adult Books. Across the street from the Delaware Valley Cremation Center. Between the fire extinguisher and yellow hose. #MAGA”

In fairness Trump would not look out of place in the dildo shop.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 08/11/2020 10:05

Someone tweeted, "Donald Trump, the Lawn Order President."

Calicomog · 08/11/2020 10:05

It was the furious assertion that Will Smiths late father was committing voter fraud in Philli that was the cherry on that bun

WilsonMilson · 08/11/2020 10:07

These are all brilliant. It’s the gift that keeps on giving, and God knows we all need a laugh at the moment!

WHAT? I thought they'd realise they'd messed up and quickly book somewhere else.

They ACTUALLY DID THE PRESS CONFERENCE THERE?

OH. MY. GOD.

WilsonMilson · 08/11/2020 10:12

@wigglerose I know. You couldn’t make it up. I was lying in bed at 1am last night in tears laughing at all the tweets about it. Best laugh in ages.

The Fyre Festival of press conferences. Too arrogant to admit they fucked up so tried to style it out anyway. Brilliant Grin

Gingernaut · 08/11/2020 10:15

I really was laughing out loud yesterday.

The setting, the tweets, the reports and Rudolph Giuliani having some sort of psychotic break - it's Spinal Tap and The Thick of It all rolled into one.

PuppyMonkey · 08/11/2020 10:18

It’s gold. Grin

But, I keep wondering - did the person who took the booking at the landscape business not mention at any point “sorry mate, we’re a landscaping business, we don’t usually have space available for hire for events.” They just answered the phone and heard who it was and then said “Yes ok, that’s fine - that’ll be 200 dollars, see you all later - Doug the foreman will be along to open the gates.”Confused

IamTomHanks · 08/11/2020 10:20

It sums up the administration perfectly.

DelphineWalsh · 08/11/2020 10:23

Oh this is beautiful. chefs kiss
