Looking for some Trump wine for the holiday? It's on sale at our Nat'l Parks!

Head no farther than Shenandoah National Park, where you can pick it up at the Skyland Resort.

That's according to Bill Snape, senior counsel at the Center for Biological Diversity, who wants to get to the bottom of why it's sold there.
"Even as we sit down for Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday, Trump wine is everywhere — how?" Snape said in an interview today.

Hoping to find answers, Snape filed a request under the federal Freedom of Information Act, asking the National Park Service to provide records regarding the sale of wine and other alcoholic beverages at Shenandoah and other national parks.

The request also asks NPS to produce any records or documents that mention Trump, his family members or Trump merchandise.Snape said the discovery of the wine at Shenandoah was first made by one of the center's members, who took photos of the bottles but wants to remain anonymous."She just stumbled across it and obviously got a little fired up and upset. I checked it out and confirmed it," Snape said.
