Four Seasons Total Landscaping: – Everyone laughs at Trump’s Garden Center. Almost.

It was a scene That could have been cut from a political sitcom. On Saturday, President Donald Trump tweeted that his lawyers would hold a press conference at the Four Seasons in Philadelphia. Journalists from all over the world had already started heading to the Four Seasons luxury hotel, when the correction arrived, both from Trump camp and the hotel itself: the press conference would not be at the hotel, but at Four Seasons Total Landscaping, a garden center in Northeast Philadelphia, with a sex shop and crematorium as closest neighbors.

Was In the garden center parking lot, Trump’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, delivered his latest fierce speech against the electoral fraud he claimed to see everywhere, while listening on the mobile phones of journalists that CNN had stated that Joe Biden he had won the presidential elections. One by one, they exited the parking lot.

The session in Four Seasons Total Landscaping became the spark that ignited a thousand memes and jokes on Twitter. The Trump camp explained that the plan was actually to hold the press conference in a location that was next to the road, secured and away from the demonstrations of Biden supporters. But it seemed too perfect that the place they ended up had the same name as the hotel where events like press conferences are held regularly.

The garden center itself has started selling merchandise. Those interested can now purchase “Make America Rake Again” and “Lawn and Order” hooded sweatshirts and stickers. But they have also issued a slightly hurt message in which they state that they were honored to visit the press conference, and that they would like to be the harsh descriptions as well.

I’d say this is a misunderstanding. It wasn’t the garden center Twitter was laughing at, it was the fact that there had been a glaring blunder that none of Trump’s people dared admit, and which therefore led them to carry out the embarrassing incident at parking. As one viewer commented: It was as if they were invited to a press conference at The Ritz and then clarified that they were naturally referring to the parking lot outside the factory that makes Ritz cookies. For security reasons, of course.

But it was interesting How many of those who cheered for the story on Twitter imagined that the garden center employees had been part of the fun, deliberately not clearing up the misunderstanding when Giuliani’s people called. They took it for granted that Four Seasons Total Landscaping, like them, would immediately understand that the situation was ridiculous, because such things do not happen in those places. But the owners, who according to their social media profiles were Trump voters, saw perhaps only one opportunity to mean something for the US presidential election campaign.

Otherwise it was perhaps the newly elected president who had the last word, here too. In his first speech after the election results became clear, he said: “The Bible tells us that for everything there is a season: a time to build, a time to reap, a time to sow. And a time to heal. There are precisely four.
