WASHINGTON (AP) ? It's the great port-a-potty cover-up for President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.
Workers preparing for the inauguration Jan. 20 have taped over the name of the company ? "Don's Johns" ? that has long supplied portable restrooms for major outdoor events in the nation's capital.
Virginia-based Don's Johns calls itself the Washington area's top provider of portable toilet rentals. But the name apparently strikes too close to home for organizers of the inauguration of Donald John Trump.
Workers have placed blue tape over the company name on dozens of portable restrooms installed near the Capitol for the inauguration.
The company's name is clearly visible upon close inspection, but is blocked for a wide-angle view by a TV or still camera.
Robert Weghorst, chief operating officer for Don's Johns, said he did not know the logos were covered up until The Associated Press reported on it Friday, lighting up his company switchboard and "blowing up" its social media accounts.
"We don't know why it's being done. We didn't tell someone to do it," he said in a telephone interview. "We're proud to have our name on the units."
