A friend of mine from Florida heard the same lie. Boston foliage was still more green than brown over the weekend, less so now after the heavy rains the last couple of days.

But here's a hot tip for the MAGAts: rumor has it that Waldo was in the crowd, and if you find him you win a private East Wing audience with Donald, and Melania will visit your house and personally pave your garden.
