WASHINGTON — Organizers are scrambling after powerful winds toppled the National Christmas Tree on Tuesday. According to the National Park Service, the tree already had to be replaced once this year after it was discovered the original tree planted for the ceremony developed a fungus. At 1 p.m., NPS says the fully decorated tree fell after a large gust of wind came through the area. WUSA9 is being told the contractor is willing to come back and redecorate, but it is uncertain at this time if the tree is salvageable. However, officials say the show will go on. With just two days away from the ceremony, the lighting is expected to bring entertainers and guests from all over--including WUSA9's very own Annie Yu and Wisdom Martin. The National Christmas Tree Lighting will take place on the Ellipse at The White House and President’s Park, just south of the White House. www.fox43.com/article/news/local/national-christmas-tree-falls-over/65-04211351-0391-4822-9e26-8570680fbff6?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot&fbclid=IwAR0Jfrj6iwYQ19vyNalzmt5MqDwsOuomuXrTpUW5_sHXFfCScC5NlFh_De0

... We are not, as a nation, living the way we should. <-- that's my summary in a nutshell, just apply it to any goofy, pitiful, sad, or awful event happening in this country at present. I saw a picture of tht toppled tree on fb this morning, and a lame comment that said it represents Biden's presidency.
