Please know, all of you, every single senator and house rep, that you have got to find a legitimate way to secure every citizen’s, and every immigrant’s, welfare. We can never, ever, allow someone like this to be elected to the highest most powerful position in our county .. ever again.
Of course it was...he doesn't want anyone to see the small crowd that would gather, and he plans to pocket the majority of the $200M inaugural fund. Always about the grift...
Exactly my thought when I heard. He will say a record number of the now commemorative tickets were handed out and noone will be able to see that with their own eyes like they could with a small crowd.
What an awful evil little ‘man’ he is. At this point, he will probably only be held accountable for his magnitude of sins when he is turned away from the pearly gates!
trump has room for the richest dudes on the planet to attend, but between all of them headed indoors, they won't spend a dime on the supporters who put them into power. What's it going to take for these magas to figure out they've been had?
Make Jan 20 2025 a Memorial Day.
In Loving Memory of; USCP Officer Brian Sicknick, Officer Howard Liebengood, Officer Jeffrey Smith, Officer Kyle DeFreytag, and Officer Gunther Hashida their lives ended as a result of Jan 6 / DonaldJTrump. Four took their own lives. Remember their names, always.
I assumed such. I was kind of hoping most progressives invited to the rotunda ceremony would RSVP Yes, and then not show up so the chairs are empty. But that would be petty.
(I am feeling petty this week, so I'm okay with it.)
Wait til their despicable far right admin/regime starts and stops and lies and fails to deliver like this. Gonna be a total s—t show, which is just gonna make him pass the buck and clamp down harder. Fight back.
While he was pandering for votes, he didn't care what people looked like at his rallies. But now the Felon wants to project a certain image and he doesn't want these people at his inauguration. When will MAGATS learn.
Who is actually in charge of the flags flying at federal buildings leading up to the actual inauguration? Will they remain at half mast until the newly installed administration orders them changed?
The person in charge is The Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, who said he will raise the flags for his inauguration... supposedly.
This may be one of the reasons it got moved inside. So the flags outside could remain in honor of Carter. Also crowd size will not be great outside. All Optics.
It’s good that you’re trying to do the right thing by your constituents. That’s good government. But in a larger sense good government must not include validating bad choices.
His voters must understand the consequences of their choices. This is a cheap lesson you should let them learn.
Refunds? If you were stupid enough to buy tickets for this, then you deserve it to be suckered. Don't complain about egg prices when you got money to drop on watching this turd take office again.
MTG said it was due to "security issues" which means they will spin it that Biden was doing enough for it as im sure we will hear Trump say that soon enough. And the rubes will buy it and no they will never ever learn. Trump policies in his first term bankrupted people and many voted for him again.
The news has been saying that it will be the most secure inauguration in history. But mtg never allows facts to get in the way of her conspiracy theories.
The inauguration fund was already structured as a slush fund he was free to use for personal expenses. Which is why the big donations to it were truly nothing but direct bribes.
I'm sure it will be handled with the same level of professionalism, fairness, and honesty that the Trump foundation and the previous inaugural fund were. 😜
They'll just move all the parties indoors where only the billionaires with VIP passes can enjoy them. Oh, Wait. Except for the fireworks shows, I think that's the most inauguration parties are anyway. The hoi polloi still get to watch on TV if they want.
If there’s a physical invasion, they’d never be the ones doing it. These cowards just broker difficult situations for others to undertake. Never there job.
There shouldn't be any problem using the money donated by the wealthy to the fat man's inauguration to refund supporters for their out of pocket expenses because they can't get in.
Why do you suppose they're willing to livestream to Cap One arena but not have it there? Surely Trump's "best people" 2.0 can manage security without difficulty.
Finally, my staff has gotten calls from folks quite upset that they spent hundreds or thousands of dollars on airfare and hotel nights. They have inquired about refunds. 3/
Why didn't you do anything to stop this monster from walking back into the whitehouse? You had the 14th mendment in your hands. Weak stupid stance taken by dems will cost this country so much. So much mental stress having to listen to this idiot or worry about what he is going to do to OUR country.
Tell them to go ask Musk or Zuck or Bezos for a refund. They gave millions to trump for the inauguration and they certainly have enough to pay them back.
I understand you have to treat these people with respect and understanding but I wish you could let them know that Cosimo Kramedici from Bluesky said "lmao"
Please ensure we don't have to pay to make them whole like we've had to for other Trump favorites. THANK YOU. Signed, Very Sick of Paying for Trump Stuff and it is Beginning to Feel Like TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.
However, our office is not aware of any refunds being offered by the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee for expenses incurred for the Inauguration. My office has begun emailing and calling everyone who received tickets from our district to make sure everyone is aware of the change. 4/
The burning tesla cybertruck outside Trump NV hotel was the symbol of the next 4 yrs, & that was day 1 of the new yr. The "nonrefundable" ticket is standard practice. Country folk have no clue how badly this cruel citified 45 will f@€k you up during the next week, month, yr & potentially decade.
Civil yet clearly pointing out the old felon is the one in charge of the event.
We all know the decision to scrap the public inauguration is due to extremely low hotel reservations. Tiny crowd expected, and the humiliation of an empty Mall — twice!
Pretty sure Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Thiel and the other billionaires are getting indoor seats. I wonder if they would be willing to refund the foot soldiers left out in the cold after ensuring a glide path to welfare for the wealthy.
That’s the reason the only area you’ll find plumbers and carpenters at in Mar A Lago is the back kitchens as they fix stuff. Only the tech Bros are allowed anywhere.🤷♂️
For those who have not picked up their tickets from my office in Washington, we will be mailing your ticket to you at the address you listed as a commemorative souvenir of the 60th Inaugural. Sincerely, Joaquin Castro. 5/
Birds gotta fly, fish gotta swim, lifelong grifters gotta GRIFT. When will the MAGA "marks" figure out that they've been had?? FELONinChief's gonna be with the billionaire boys club; couldn't care less about them now.
Hotels were at filled 70%, not the 95% Trump was hoping for. I guess it is best he stays inside so he doesn't get upset or a bit cold. The rich guys will get free tickets to the arena.
OTOH this is just par for the course with Trump just like he used to stiff his contractors. OTOH what were they thinking? Why would anyone pay thousands of dollars to see this illegitimate "President" this illegitimate "man's" vanity project
Maybe you should suggest they use the opportunity to go visit the Jefferson memorial and read the damn walls about what Jefferson actually said about religion in politics.
The weather has nothing to do with the change of venue. Trump is going to keep all the money and he doesn’t want the world to see that nobody is going to show up and watch a POS Felon become president. The only ones showing up r the 🤡 who can’t afford eggs but spent thousands to go to DC. Maggots 🤦🏼♀️

It is about crowd size, he doesn't want to be embarrassed again

Oh wait, he's a grifter, so he won't.
That's why all of his supplicants are donating to it...its the closest thing you can get to backing an armored truck up to mar a lago.
Priceless.

A fool and his money are soon parted. Again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, apparently.
Immeasurably mortifying.
Will they never learn?

Oh…..wait…….

Otherwise, grow up. Refunds for hotels and air fare are between you and that particular business. Not your Congress person.

But he for sure has constituents who voted for Trump, he's their representative as well
ALL Democrats should be doing this.
Flood them with complaints, lawsuits, threats, etc.
Make him answer to them…
