permanent campsite electrical
I want my own pedestal. Can I daisy chain off from the pedestal nearest my campsite? Can I plug into the 50 amp space and run it to my own pedestal with a 30amp and 20 amp outlets? I would be using...

If it is an existing campground the number of pedestals per loop is specified in NEC. I do not remember the actual numbers. Adding an additional pedestal would not be legal if the loop is already maxed out.
If I remember correctly it is 13 30 amp on a loop--but I really don't remember the number for 50 amp.
He is NOT installing this in the existing "LOOP" ckt you are talking about. What he is doing is basically plugging in another "sub-panel" to the existing pedestal and for that I'm not sure what a lot here are referencing to NEC, etc. even applies. AFAIK as long as you are plugging this in it becomes "temporary" just like your trailer is and I don't think burying the cord or using armored cable changes the temporary nature of his addition. The key word is "it's plugged in" and as such is by definition "TEMPORARY".
