Several Boats Started To Sink During Trump Boat Parade In Texas

As the Presidential elections are round the corners rallies and parades from the supporters of both the candidates are going on. And as a part of Pro Trump campaign a boat parade was held on Lake Travis, Texas.

As per the Facebook posts more the 2,600 Trump supporters attended the parade.  So the parade started at around 11.30 am and the boats were to en route Paradise Cove, West Beach , Point Venture and Hust Creek. But within sometime many of the boats got in serious trouble.

Thus distress calls were made to the Travis Country rescue officials. As some of the boats were almost on the verge of sinking. Not only that several calls were made to many other agencies in Texas asking for help.

As per these agencies they began to receive distress calls from the very afternoon. And that is just after the parade actually began. Although there have been other Pro-Trump boat parades in other parts of the US like New Jersey and South Carolina. But this was the first time the parade boats actually got into danger.

Therefore the question stands are these kind of parades actually necessary? Because with such chaos in the banks of the water bodies there are high chances for mishaps to occur.

Rescue

As per the statement issued by the Travis Country Sherrif’s Office there has been no cases of injury or death. Hence the rescue team rushed into the spot and rescued the boats in distress.
