Many people said President Trump didn't know which city he was in, that he was losing his mind...

but Sioux City has a reputation for joking around; audience knew President Trump was teasing, they're used to it.
interesting that this^ is a new article, that they're talking about it so soon after his speech. and it mentions 'flight 232' (flight full of children)
another example of the SC's contrarian legacy; they 'refused' to air Letterman, he turned it into a skit.
& just for fun, to show how connected they all are...DL & DJT are friends🥸 https://youtu.be/vS99BxLOmQI?si=W91SWbgiFA2dztlR&t=220
and I know the WSJ link is a paywall, some can't see it...the gist of the article, can also listen to most of it by clicking on headphone icon; article mentions President Trump and his plane at the SUX airport🐸
"SIOUX CITY, Iowa—This community, long known for unpleasant smells wafting from its now-closed stockyards and still lacking some of the niceties enjoyed by other midsize cities, has always felt a bit looked down upon. Its airport code hasn’t helped.
Sioux Gateway Airport, or SUX as it appears on tickets and bag tags, has been the butt of jokes in Iowa and beyond for decades.
After complaints and failed efforts to change the code, Sioux City decided to lean into its unfortunate designation and, more recently, has expanded it well beyond the airport. Area businesses are increasingly embracing the branding and SUX is popping up all over the place."
