Beach chairs, blankets and trash. Massive mess left after Trump's Wildwood rally.



The thousands of people who descended upon the Jersey Shore town for President Donald Trump's 'Keep America Great' rally at the Wildwoods Convention Center left behind a sea of trash in the parking lot — including their abandoned beach chairs and blankets — after the rally wrapped up.

Rally-goers were allowed to bring chairs as they waited in line — some for up to 48 hours before the event — but they weren't allowed to bring them inside the venue.

Factor in the blankets they used to stay warm, and all their drinks and food they were snacking on during the long wait in the parking lot and the convention center ends up with a parking lot full of trash to deal with Wednesday morning.

MAGATs bought the crap to weather the hours of waiting in the cold for Trump’s rally and everyone was forced to leave it in the parking lot so after the rally it would be damn near impossible to find your shit in that mess. Of course they abandoned it.

Let’s just hope all that brand new stuff and clothes made it to homeless shelters and thrift stores. At least something good might have come of this.
