It’s fair to say that the US election offered up plenty of twists and turns over the weekend, with Joe Biden finally claiming victory on Sunday.
However, perhaps the highlight came when President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and former mayor of New York City, Rudolph Giuliani, delivered a press conference from the Four Seasons.
“Lawyers News Conference Four Seasons, Philadelphia. 11:00 a.m.,” President Trump tweeted Saturday morning in an effort to promote the presser.
While everyone assumed the Four Seasons in question was the luxury hotel, it was, in fact, a reference to a local Philadelphia business named Four Seasons Total Landscaping, which is located near an adult shop, Fantasy Island Adult Bookstore; and a crematorium.
Apparently, a Trump staffer accidentally thought the carpark out the back of the landscaping business was the hotel, and Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia was also forced to clarify the mishap.
To clarify, President Trump’s press conference will NOT be held at Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia.

What eventuated was Giuliani delivering his press conference in the carpark, in what has been described as an apt ending to the chaotic Trump administration.

Of course, social media had an absolute field day at the expense of Trump and Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

And then they held the press conference at the Four Seasons.
Hotel?
Nope, landscaping company. pic.twitter.com/G2RnTMX5FN— 🇪🇸🇬🇧🐧 (@ali00713) November 8, 2020
