Supporters of President Donald Trump on May 13 upstaged a Green New Deal press conference featuring progressive New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio.
De Blasio, who had previously vowed to outlaw glass-and-steel skyscrapers, scheduled the conference at the Trump Tower, a glass-and-steel tower in New York City’s Midtown.
Television footage of the event shows Trump fans upstaging the speakers by riding on the escalators behind the podium and holding signs with messages like “Failed Mayor,” “Worst Mayor Ever” and “Trump 2020.”
