This looks awesome, we are road tripping to see it this weekend. I imagine non-electric car parking will be an afterthought though. It seems like they want you to find street parking somewhere.

I understand what you’re saying and I can agree with you that the rule of law is important. You are ignoring the fact that the previous admin ignored due process for letting them in in the first place, but that was not my original question.
