Donald Trump supporters found themselves in far than ideal circumstances while waiting in line for admission to the Republican president candidateâs rally at Madison Square Garden.
Some particularly passionate fans had camped out in Manhattan overnightâin some cases, for multiple nightsâin advance of the Sunday event, but were caught short after realizing there were no toilets available.
âWeâre peeing in bags and little cups, and we had to put up a little portable privacy shower so people didnât have to look at each other when they did that,â one such camper told the New York Post, having arrived for the rally on Friday morning.
The 59-year-old woman told the Post that leaving to find a restroom would have resulted in expulsion from the line, prompting the most devout MAGA followers to get crafty in search of relief.
âWe had to do this. Insane!â she said, revealing plastic bottles-turned-portable toilets.
âWhy didnât they put any porta potties out here for us? Why did the city decide not to do that? Itâs like a third-world country!â
While many turned to makeshift bathroom set-ups, others decided to simply avoid liquids so as not to fall victim to the call of nature.
The Post also spoke to one single parent whoâd arrived at Madison Square Garden early Sunday morning with her 7-year-old daughterâwho she described as a keen Trump fan.
âYou just canât drink any fluids. We got here a little after 6 a.m.... so weâre going to tough it out and not drink or eat anything. Itâs kind of insane that thereâs no provision at all for people who are going to be waiting this long,â the woman said.
