I’m sure that’s going over super well.

Are they still having the parade then?

kristin-wilson.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yes

deehellcat.bsky.social•115 days ago

but not on the street, apparently? I saw video elseweb that was presented as the bleachers being taken down. lol

sophiafhc.bsky.social•115 days ago

I thnk they changed the route and made it shorter

deehellcat.bsky.social•115 days ago

could be. It's immaterial to me, I'm not watching one minute of the mess, just curious. :D thanks for the intel.

phoenixwomanmn.bsky.social•115 days ago

He knows nobody is going to show up anyway:

Day 1. Screw over my cult followers - check

dragonspire.bsky.social•115 days ago

Huh. The Mall audience sees it on big screens anyway, right? So they could watch a broadcast from indoors just as easily. Why cancel? I guess it's crowd size again.

housebunny.bsky.social•113 days ago

They are selling on EBay 60.00 LOL!

largesseadultson.bsky.social•113 days ago

“pre-owned” nah homie I think you’re presently owned lmao

cindynorth1.bsky.social•115 days ago

hahahaah

sdfstu.bsky.social•115 days ago

Nice to get an unexpected Schadenfreude Friday!

brentbradshaw.bsky.social•115 days ago

I would be so relieved to not have to go.

thepaulchurch.bsky.social•115 days ago

It seems inevitable that once the widespread anger and disappointment from his supporters starts, Trump will deny that this was his idea, claim he definitely wanted to have it outside, and blame someone else for the decision.

elizabethwilkinson.bsky.social•115 days ago

I think they’ll be okay with it. Anything their god-king does is good for them.

johnathanochonueve.bsky.social•115 days ago

The woke DEI mob created the cold weather, you know that.

mino1069.bsky.social•115 days ago

MTG will be giving a speech on that.

whogivesashirt.bsky.social•113 days ago

But Climate Change definitely isn't man-made!

sistercurry.bsky.social•115 days ago

Them damn Dems and their weather machines!

freexpression.bsky.social•115 days ago

And how about those Jewish space lasers?

zecat123.bsky.social•115 days ago

This is what they raised 200 million for lmao

jodyodyo.bsky.social•115 days ago

Ding ding ding!!! 💯

exxzackly.bsky.social•115 days ago

Surprise surprise, another scam from the world's biggest con man 😒

8fuld.bsky.social•115 days ago

Now $500 million courtesy of our oliogarchs.

freexpression.bsky.social•115 days ago

How much does it cost to rent out the Capitol building 😂😂😂

cptdoomdc.bsky.social•115 days ago

I realize it's 3 days away, but DC is DEAD. Very few tourists of any kind and the entire atmosphere in the city is a resigned quiet.

elizabethwilkinson.bsky.social•115 days ago

I live 90 miles north and visit frequently. I don’t feel like visiting for the next four years. 😢

deehellcat.bsky.social•115 days ago

I'm a good distance away, was really hoping to finally visit this year and see a lot of the stuff I've never gotten to; but yeah, same, not going near it for 4 yrs. Sorry to the good folks who live there, I know it's not their fault, I just don't feel safe with magat tourons all over the place.

elizabethwilkinson.bsky.social•115 days ago

You’re right, it won’t be safe. It would make me sad to be there while that pos is in office.

peggyhillarlen.bsky.social•115 days ago

Shouldn’t be that hard to call ten people.

fargolawyer.bsky.social•115 days ago

Most of them know how to storm the rotunda anyway so its not a big deal.

leechris04.bsky.social•115 days ago

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m done internetting for today. Nothing will top this. Well done!!!

notzenyet.bsky.social•115 days ago

Hear me out, but this would actually be hilarious if it was a repeat performance 😂

kristin-wilson.bsky.social•115 days ago

I’m gonna “time out Knicks” here. Lots of folks in that building - cooks, cleaning crew, floor staff - who aren’t fancy and need that job. They were terrified that day.
Let’s not wish a repeat of that day, if only for their sake.

largesseadultson.bsky.social•113 days ago

Dude nobody’s really hoping that happens, let people whistle past the cemetery ffs

helloandrew.bsky.social•115 days ago

Like Woodstock!
“This is now a free concert”

jodyodyo.bsky.social•115 days ago

45 didn’t want his full diaper to freeze.

arkenor.bsky.social•115 days ago

I'm sure Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg will still get their special boy table.

kennymacleod.bsky.social•115 days ago

I have a lovely mental image of the three of them sharing a tiny table that only reaches up to their knees.

deblavoy.bsky.social•115 days ago

What does that mean?

robertlong4man.bsky.social•115 days ago

everyone seems to understand except you and me

deblavoy.bsky.social•115 days ago

I just looked it up. The event was just moved indoors due to cold temperatures. That’s fine.

insidejoke.bsky.social•115 days ago

Inauguration tickets are available to the public through members of Congress. They are normally handed out to VIPs. Bundlers and the like. So this will be seen as a slight or let down at the very least.

deblavoy.bsky.social•115 days ago

Now he has an excuse for why no one shows up.

joseortega78.bsky.social•115 days ago

Seems like another grift. No refunds I’m sure.

oldsquid.bsky.social•115 days ago

detryckvondoom.bsky.social•115 days ago

This nigga ain’t even president yet and already ripping y’all off.

pastorofmuppetsusa.bsky.social•115 days ago

Not even in office and already screwing the people who voted for him.

realchrispeterson.bsky.social•115 days ago

Screwing the donors of GOP congressmembers, which is a much worse idea.

seashmore.bsky.social•115 days ago

Worse for who, though?

honucal.bsky.social•115 days ago

I heard a rumor that people were requesting tickets without intending on showing up...

kristin-wilson.bsky.social•115 days ago

I can’t speak to that. I know many offices had more requests than they had tickets.
What the recipients planned to do with them I’ll leave to those recipients…

wicksdoug.bsky.social•115 days ago

Ah, he's just sitting the stage for rolling waves of sadness, disappointment and frustration among his cult followers. Sad.

tonydaniel.bsky.social•115 days ago

Trump's gonna give them meme coins in place of tickets. Win
win. Right? 🤣

electric528.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yeah, won't go over well with the diehards.

Add security...they stormed the Capitol once for that man, they may try again.

irishblessing.bsky.social•115 days ago

As are their planes, trains & automobile tickets!!
Too funny!!!

bradaltad.bsky.social•114 days ago

MAGA losers will be simultaneously thrilled and also find a way to blame Hillary Clinton.

freethinker65.bsky.social•115 days ago

So can Trump just pocket all of the inauguration money???

jonysake6.bsky.social•115 days ago

Inauguration tickets are free, the money is for the after parties mostly, but still
https://www.usa.gov/inauguration

freethinker65.bsky.social•115 days ago

So sounds like Trump prefers to just hobnob with those that can afford to attend the galas.

deehellcat.bsky.social•115 days ago

well yeah, he's said that before, iirc, that he hates the 'dirty' crowd that worships him.

psychopathyred.bsky.social•115 days ago

They can just put them on the mantle next to the bottle of trump wine and the trumpy doll.

phill.hallambaker.com•115 days ago

But they paid the Trump org a hundred thousand dollars for the hospitality package

slder78.bsky.social•115 days ago

Are we really expecting that big of a crowd to begin with?

eszter.bsky.social•115 days ago

🤣😆😂😁😅

mjprieve.bsky.social•113 days ago

jess6k.bsky.social•115 days ago

Hahahhaahhahahahha

lensman23.bsky.social•115 days ago

I guess they are saying no refunds.

bluezer24.bsky.social•115 days ago

Probably because there weren’t enough sold. So now he doesn’t look foolish. Again.

saasyproduct.bsky.social•115 days ago

Wait--were they sold? Couldn't you request them from your congressmoron?

I mean--yeah, if he *could* sell them, he would.

kristin-wilson.bsky.social•115 days ago

They were not sold. They were given to congressional offices to share with their constituents.
If recipients sold them, that’s different. But they were given gratis by members to people in their districts.

saasyproduct.bsky.social•115 days ago

That's what I thought. But in this timeline, anything with a whiff of grift is definitely possible.

gtofana.bsky.social•114 days ago

Yeah, I could totally see Trump selling extra special MAGA ones that were red, white and orange

patriotboy2025.bsky.social•115 days ago

Trump was so afraid the turnout was going to be so low, now he has an alibi.

raeckart.bsky.social•115 days ago

TBH, he's a frail old man who shouldn't be out in the weather. You know, the definition of manliness.

bajmihal.bsky.social•115 days ago

I say he should spend all of his time outside.

brewlord.bsky.social•115 days ago

Someone told him about William Henry Harrison, and how that turned out.

whogivesashirt.bsky.social•113 days ago

Or Abraham Lincoln, and how *that* turned out. https://lincolnconspirators.com/2012/05/31/booth-at-lincolns-second-inauguration/

amy2mom.bsky.social•115 days ago

he's just so scammy-scam-scam about everything.

silvered.bsky.social•115 days ago

That's hilarious

jonnyv42.bsky.social•115 days ago

It's cold outside, bring them inside!

jdtechie.bsky.social•115 days ago

Is this before or after they ask to also inspect their wallets?

oldsourpuss.bsky.social•115 days ago

I was really hoping for a repeat of William Henry Harrison.

elmomollusc.bsky.social•115 days ago

I wonder if certain people are worried about a repeat of William McKinley or James Garfield tbh.

maryaskew.bsky.social•115 days ago

Think of the crowded Rotounda as a party for viruses like flu, RSV and Covid. 😊

elmomollusc.bsky.social•115 days ago

The orange c*nt is the same age now as Smilin' Joe was when he took the oath outside in 2021. But of course its Joe who's sick and senile.
Every right-wing accusation is a confession...

misappropriated.bsky.social•115 days ago

Anyone who has a Mall ticket is the enemy within

wellestarr1.bsky.social•115 days ago

Why don't they just crash the inauguration inside the Capitol building. It's not like they don't know their way in.

whistlingbatter.bsky.social•115 days ago

they're going to pull 1/6 on 1/20 to get in

halaylah.bsky.social•115 days ago

oh, please gods

windycitychik.bsky.social•115 days ago

phranklindb.bsky.social•115 days ago

Suckers & losers

matt-man69.bsky.social•113 days ago

🤣🤣🤣 I love it!!! 💙🇺🇸🌊🙋🏻🏳️‍🌈💯💙

tousledpigtails.bsky.social•115 days ago

"While we know this is difficult for many attendees, we strongly suggest people who are in Washington for the event attend other indoor events at indoor venues of their choice to watch the inauguration." LOL just watch on TV or something.

deehellcat.bsky.social•115 days ago

I expect a lot of them to go to bars and start fights if they can't order the tv's turned on the freakshow.

masshole55.bsky.social•115 days ago

Bravo 👏🏼 🤣

illimij.bsky.social•115 days ago

Saw guys interviewed today: "We drove in from Oklahoma to part of this historic event. Shoulda stayed home and watched on TV."

sagastar.bsky.social•115 days ago

lot of "fell for it again" award holders

jerrettsnyder.bsky.social•115 days ago

I'm pretty sure that all the MAGA cult members hold the dubious distinction of a record number of "fell for it again" awards.

nosajlaroc.bsky.social•115 days ago

Hahahahahah

zathras5.bsky.social•115 days ago

For the low, low price of $500, Trump will sign them.

gseabhac.bsky.social•115 days ago

"We're commemorating pocketing your money, suckers!"

naniej1998.bsky.social•115 days ago

mafitz3.bsky.social•115 days ago

My guess is that not many actually signed up, hence blaming the weather and moving indoors. Likely not a lot of calls to be made. It's all smoke and mirrors.
