Interviewing the Husband....at the Great American State Fair. His wife is with the EMTs due to heat exhaustion

There are NO chairs at Trumps Fest--i saw pictures of people sitting the ground at the Eatery's.
It is 94 degrees in DC
It is beyond me why people are at this event !!
That said, I hope the woman recovers. --the husband is this film looks to be on the older side of life and should NOT be out in this kind of heat.

These people are seriously inept. Did they really think that it would be so filled with people that there wouldn’t be room for benches/seats of some sort?

at least that is how the Trump admin sees it. You also can not bring backpacks, folding chairs or pretty much anything. They provide stations where you can refill a water bottle, that's it.

Imagine out of shape, older Trumper in 107 degrees heat without shade or a place to sit and cool off.
Good thing there is actually very few people or it would be a mass casualty event.
