Is Donald Trump's Inauguration Committee Ordering Workers to Cover Up Porta Potties?

WASHINGTON, DC — Pictures of what appear to be inauguration workers using blue tape to cover up the "Don's Johns" logo on porta potties stationed on the National Mall in advance of the inauguration of Donald Trump are making the rounds on social media, and there's no official explanation as to why -- although lots of people have guesses.

Of course, there is the appearance of "Don" in the name, which might create some bad optics combined with an embarrassing recent story of a dossier describing certain uncouth restroom activities involving Donald Trump. But is that really why inauguration workers were spotted covering up the logos of the 1,500 porta potties that will accommodate the tens of thousands who will be on the National Mall to watch Trump's coronation as president?

DCist reports that Robert Weghorst, Don's Johns chief operating officer, isn't happy about the situation, and they're trying to figure out why it's happening as well as get the tape removed.

Those responsible for taping over the logos are indeed inauguration workers, reports the Associated Press.

As for Weghorst, he has one thing on his mind, according to DCist:

"We're trying to get to the bottom of it."

All the port-a-johns at the Capitol are having the "Don" in Don's Johns taped over. I guess to avoid confusion. pic.twitter.com/FD5Jqjw9HO
