OMG! "Four Seasons Landscaping" WAS the location...

New York Times

Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, was standing in the parking lot of Four Seasons Total Landscaping in far northeast Philadelphia, as close to a Trump enclave as a decidedly Democratic city gets, highlighting alleged examples of voter fraud when the networks called the presidential race for Joseph R. Biden Jr.

The surroundings were humble for such a seminal moment — a podium set up in front of a closed garage door decorated with a campaign poster — especially after a presidential tweet in the morning had advertised something that sounded a lot more upscale.

“Lawyers News Conference Four Seasons, Philadelphia. 11:00 a.m.,” President Trump tweeted Saturday morning, before issuing a corrective and explaining that he did not mean the luxury downtown hotel near the city’s convention center and was referring instead to a business called Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

The correction quickly met with derision and glee among many blue-checkmark Twitter users, who assumed the campaign had accidentally booked the wrong venue. The landscaping business, after all, was situated near a porn shop, Fantasy Island Adult Bookstore, and a crematorium.

No having to carry dead mobsters in a car trunk to bury them in a place that may one day become a strip mall. Invite them to watch porn, whack them just as they are reaching their happy ending, take them to the landscape shop for a few quick words and lay some flower on them, then off to burn them to ashes, that conveniently get spread around Philly, and most importantly, won’t mess up the hitman’s or hitwoman’s car.

Looks like Trump's campaign finally hit bottom. It's a fitting end to America's nightmare.

Gawd...that so sums up the Trump organization.

Truly the most poetic last gasp of the Trump presidency ends with Rudy's conspiracies' in an industrial parking lot, flanked by a dildo store, and a crematorium. The final season writers would have been fired for such a contrived ending.

Does he need the money? He has to know how it looks and how he further ruins his reputation every day.
The whole event had this appearance of being something he did during the lunch break he took from working at the porn shop next door.

Oh the mad scramble it must have been when they checked their wallets and did not have the scratch to get a room at the Four Seasons.

"Quick, get a phone book and look for a cheap place called Four Seasons!"

"Rudy, what's a phone book?"
