Four Seasons Hotel Is Not Four Seasons Total Landscaping

Okay, wait, there really was not enough attention on this yesterday which is just the cherry on top of what I think is a nice victory for us. In a bizarre mixup, President Trump’s team thought they scheduled his press conference at the Four Seasons hotel in Philadelphia. Turns out it was an establishment called Four Seasons Total Landscaping. As you see above, the press conference was in a lot? Headlines are also not letting go of the fact that it also happens to be next to an adult bookstore.

It’s not only just funny, it’s quite a blunder to have on the last day of the election – the day where a decision is made. I’m going to remember this forever. I don’t know about all of you, but I am certainly glad that this is all over. Onwards and upwards!
