Good.

evilpeony.bsky.social•119 days ago

Great. Can they boycott the inauguration too

margrill1.bsky.social•119 days ago

Good for them!

djvagirl.bsky.social•119 days ago

Good

smlodoch.bsky.social•119 days ago

Hard to eat when you’re sick to your stomach.

ainteefa44.bsky.social•119 days ago

Oooh boy they’re fighting now! 🤦‍♂️

womenvoteblue.bsky.social•119 days ago

They shouldn’t attend any of it!

thiscondor.bsky.social•118 days ago

They should instead have a televised lunch discussion with Travis Kelce and Lebron James about America’s future.

mfostwald.bsky.social•119 days ago

It’s the right thing to do.

farawayeyes1.bsky.social•119 days ago

I love it! Good on them

only23togo.bsky.social•119 days ago

They're going to eat McDonald's on their own time.

fkx-boomer.bsky.social•119 days ago

Not good enough Obama, B.Clinton, Bush

NOT.Good.Enough!

DO NOT ATTEND THAT FASCIST 'INSTALLATION'

Same for President Biden

Do not lower yourselves!

iancaveney.bsky.social•119 days ago

Security nightmare trying to get four presidents in one McDonald's.

infjdesign.bsky.social•119 days ago

Jimmy Carter reply with a "Tentative"?

(come on Bluesky...show me you've got the juice!)

chim-chim.bsky.social•119 days ago

Stephen Miller is serving baby tear soup seasoned with puppy souls.

trishfraga.bsky.social•119 days ago

They should just skip the whole spectacle. They have a good excuse it’s too cold. 🥶

littleblkdres.bsky.social•119 days ago

They should decline to attend *anything* related to the inauguration.

leliworld.bsky.social•119 days ago

They shouldn't be attend to the whole inauguration either.
Trump wasn't there for Biden's. Malaria refused to have tea with Jill Biden.
Treat them like they treats others.

yourcanadiangf.bsky.social•119 days ago

Can they wheel in Jimmy Carter?

erickmiles.bsky.social•119 days ago

This has me cackling.

iwebdula2.bsky.social•117 days ago

I hope this is true. Everyone who is not his boot licker should avoid it on all platforms.

jmal52.bsky.social•119 days ago

It will probably be cold McDonald's hamberders anyway, right?

ginalolajupiter.bsky.social•119 days ago

Dump boycotted Biden inauguration so he should shut up

notonebit.com•119 days ago

Bet Pence won’t be there either

jasonatdabeach.bsky.social•119 days ago

Good call. McDonald's is probably catering the luncheon.

ekjordan.bsky.social•119 days ago

If they did attend it, they would probably become ill with nausea and vomiting even with carefully prepared foods

dktr.bsky.social•119 days ago

I'm sure resting bitch face Melania is jealous. She's obligated because she already cashed the check for her appearance.

jetcetera.bsky.social•119 days ago

The three of them should live stream themselves together, in casual clothes, with glasses of Scotch in hand, telling funny Trump stories and reading his mean tweets in funny voices. The ratings would be huge, the likes of which have never been seen before.

theled.bsky.social•119 days ago

Don’t just not watch the Inauguration. Send a powerful message. Tune your tv to Nickelodeon all day Monday. Make him lose in the ratings to CARTOONS

mlip16.bsky.social•119 days ago

I’ll be sitting patiently watching past ND games waiting on kickoff

I will not let that nan steal my joy

imdoctorremulak.bsky.social•119 days ago

mst3k on pluto all day for me

moongirlsusie.bsky.social•119 days ago

Where's the McDonald's?

voter1vote.bsky.social•119 days ago

I expect 'take out' food.

paulaptb.bsky.social•118 days ago

Et tu, President Bush?

Please tell me Biden will be elsewhere too.

bluefrommagioh.bsky.social•119 days ago

they would just be distractions anyway.

reeseer83.bsky.social•119 days ago

They should not attend at all.

heathenswan.bsky.social•119 days ago

I have zero respect for anyone who attends this sham inauguration for this criminal fascist.

ksadylady.bsky.social•119 days ago

About damn time these people realize normalizing this atrocity by just being there in ANY capacity is dangerous to history. Only ones that should be at the coronation is Biden/Harris. Every other living pres should "be busy." Them being there reps proper trans of power. Biden's only job now!

sirbradwi.bsky.social•119 days ago

The felon wasn't there for Biden's inauguration, why should Biden or Harris dignify his?

ksadylady.bsky.social•119 days ago

Fair point, but Biden doing the right thing just shows how bad Trump not being there was when it was his time. It's showing history right from wrong without giving the Confederates and excuse that "others" have done it too! It's righting history for the generations. Yes I man RIGHTing.

itsmeaimee.bsky.social•119 days ago

Well, ya. Who wants a cold McDonald’s Quarter Pounder?

coachn.bsky.social•119 days ago

Respecting the institution, not the man. Solid balance here under the circumstances.

corporateyeti.bsky.social•119 days ago

Same.

ggab1129.bsky.social•118 days ago

Big whoop. They shouldn't be attending the Inauguration

darrylc.bsky.social•119 days ago

Man, people gotta REALLY not like you to turn down a free lunch.

knox377.bsky.social•119 days ago

Who could eat sitting with that criminal? Not former President’s who believe in justice, Law and Order, a constitutional republic.💙🌊💙

allikv5.bsky.social•119 days ago

no mc d's for them, just dignity!

jymbyrnes.bsky.social•119 days ago

danononoselv.bsky.social•119 days ago

They need to skip the entire thing, not just the stupid McDonalds catered luncheon.

prelapsarianmusing.bsky.social•119 days ago

Trump will never be a true member of this exclusive club.

kentuckysparky.bsky.social•119 days ago

I will not attend any inauguration activities either, because I refuse to celebrate the end of America.

jeffreymkirk.bsky.social•119 days ago

The inauguration alone will suffice.

And even that isn't really necessary, unless you're feeling masochistic.

dondavenport.bsky.social•118 days ago

I hope they’re all going to lunch together and we’ll get to see it instead.

j5d22s.bsky.social•118 days ago

That’d be a great conversation to listen in on!

westerns.bsky.social•119 days ago

A cold buffet for 10 "friends"!

rebelbase.bsky.social•119 days ago

“Former presidents will not oversee death of democracy”

murphysgirl.bsky.social•119 days ago

Not enough. They shouldn't attend any of it. It's an embarrassment that Obama and the Clinton's are. (I don't expect anything else from GWB) They obviously realize the negative response this is getting, yet they don't have the guts to forgo the entire debacle. I'm disgusted with all of them.

ponderit.bsky.social•119 days ago

They shouldn’t attend the inauguration either.
I heard it will be inside bc TFG is afraid of the cold.

eireann61.bsky.social•119 days ago

Something suddenly came up?

bajaarizona.bsky.social•119 days ago

I have decided to not be in attendance as well. Still plan to be polishing my cat the entire day.

mir-scs.bsky.social•119 days ago

Biden also shouldn't attend. Trump will try to poison him.

tracelene.bsky.social•119 days ago

More of this!!

bblumenthal.bsky.social•119 days ago

NONE of them should attend anything regarding the criminal conman. NONE. He didn't come to Biden's inaugural.
Fuck him.

flyingtsunami.bsky.social•118 days ago

That's what I just replied too! Why the fuck are they giving this SCUMBAG Trump any type of respect is mind boggling!

akajuhlz.bsky.social•118 days ago

That'll show em.

evolvedpolitics.bsky.social•119 days ago

They need to skip the whole inauguration.

eagletarian.bsky.social•119 days ago

got a link?

mjmm24.bsky.social•119 days ago

None of them should show up for anything. You get what you give

hulkling-she-her.bsky.social•119 days ago

why are they attending the celebration of a fascist dictator and the launch of fascism in america?
~ asking for me

rickbritt.bsky.social•119 days ago

What, Big Macs are beneath them?

predictionmonk.bsky.social•118 days ago

good

wender16.bsky.social•119 days ago

Uhoh, they’re going to jail now

davidlight.bsky.social•119 days ago

Why go to lunch when you’re fed up?

john614.bsky.social•119 days ago

Ok…

groovyavr.bsky.social•119 days ago

Let’s see FOX spin that

msmilack75.bsky.social•118 days ago

Could it be because instead of keeping it as a traditional government function held in Statuory Hall, Trump is hosting it at one of his clubs in Virginia?

tracyrebel12.bsky.social•119 days ago

Am I happy that they are going to actual inauguration? No. But understand they are trying to "honor" the office and past norms. The fact they aren't attending the rest of this farce will have to suffice and actually speaks volumes!
