  2. As one commentator noted, many Trump supporters have jobs and had to work. Also, The picture you posted is from 6hrs *before* the innauguration. That is not my word, that is Brit Humme.

  3. What Tad said. The turnout was not as large as Obama's second inauguration, you know the one with that mediocre shitty pop tune singer that lipsynced the national anthem, the national anthem at Trump's inauguration was a live performance and it was beautiful. Sometimes I wonder about what Trump says about media bias and then it appears to be true. We shall see.

  4. To correct the above, I misspelled Hume, and the above photo was not the 6 hr before that had been widely published, but it was addressed by Brit Hume as reported here: http://ijr.com/2017/01/783119-brit-hume-calls-bs-on-trump-and-obama-inauguration-pics-claims-theres-a-deceptive-trick-to-photos/

  5. Why does this feel like a reality TV show, the ratings game.

  6. Perhaps Donald Trump thought that Obama's adoration came with the office? He has spent his adult life surrounded by sycophants who reinforce his opinion that he wins and is the bestest ever at everything. He is a bully who is now complaining about the press being "mean" to him by finally holding him to account and reporting facts. He is woefully insecure about his victory, and is trying to convince others of an alternate reality. What he will soon learn if he he hasn't already is that America is not in his employ. He is our public servant. We have nothing to gain by telling him water isn't wet. Just as he taunted President Obama with the birther conspiracy as was his want and his right, the general public, lawmakers, others can criticize him too. He can repeat lies and send Spicer out to do bizarre, Orwellian pressers all he wants. But there is strong opposition to his con. We won't be silent, nor will we accept alternative facts. Best he get used to dissent.

  7. The saddest thing about Trump is these local goosestepping Republicans in some kind of severe denial, who feel the need to defend President Tiny Hands' "crowd size" LOL. When your own eyes and ears clearly observe the dude's crowds were tiny. Nowhere near Obama's massive size. It's like they are all in to try to deny the reality in front of their eyes, that everything about this man is small and not impressive. All satellite images, vantage point images, and eyewitness pictures show his tiny crowds. Not enough to convince the little Trumpies, so, let's try the reality test: Trump is not popular or liked. Come on, who is going to go stand with a bunch of white supremacists to welcome a narcissist with the lowest approval ratings in history. He lost the popular vote by millions, do you really think some mythical upswelling of popular support was somehow going to materialize on inauguration day? Of course the inauguration crowds were tiny. The women showed up the next day in record numbers to protest pussy grabber. It's Trump's pathetic local worshippers, the same ones who post debunked fake news every day on their sad little Facebook pages, who now try to convince (themselves?) our eyes are lying lol and Trumps crowds were really HUGE that is the most creepy/scary. Nope. Back to planet earth people!!
