In a segment from the fair, CNN’s Tom Foreman reported Wednesday that the event had suffered “intermittent power problems” and air conditioning units at some exhibits had failed. The fair suffered a similar power outage the day after its official opening last Thursday, causing frozen desserts to melt.The event has been marked by sparse crowd turnout, with aerial photos showing large empty areas, and several Democratic-led states declined to staff their designated booths. Despite the punishing heat, Trump stated he would deliver a "really long speech" on July 4th, boasting about his ability to speak in 107-degree weather. The president was reportedly “livid” over the crowd size at his kickoff event last Wednesday. Trump, who spoke after sunset, did not initially know how large the crowd was, CNN reported, but was later shown an aerial photo that depicted vast stretches of empty fields behind the audience.In fullTrump’s state fair melts under heat as ACs stop working forcing some exhibits to closeMore bulletinsThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
