Trump's Second Term

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos had dinner at the White House with Obama and a few other people including the comedian Jon Stewart. And Bezos envisioned a future where most Americans had service jobs where they ran errands for the wealthy. Stewart responded saying that would be a recipe for a Revolution.

Jon Stewart once told Jeff Bezos at a dinner with the Obamas that workers wanted fulfillment, not jobs running errands for rich people: 'That's a recipe for revolution'

Workers want to feel like they're not just "running errands for people that have more than you," Stewart said on "The Problem With Jon Stewart."

So many people that purchased tickets to Trump's klan rally inauguration were informed by letter that they won't be allowed into the indoor event, and won't be refunded. The letter says that they should treat the tickets as memorabilia of an important historical event.

No doubt the MAGA faithful are already explaining why ripping off all his supporters for the price of a ticket is wonderful and not just another crooked grift.

It's all the Democrats' fault for using their weather machine to make it too cold and forcing President Trump to move the inauguration inside. Of course he would love to refund for the tickets but there simply is no mechanism to do so (the Democrats' fault again) and so he is forced to keep the money against his will.
 
Is the floor of the arena where they're having the parade durable enough for Trump to finally have the parade of tanks he's always wanted?
 
Michelle Obama is skipping the inauguration, an unprecedented disrespect of the transfer of power.

He'll probably want the Proud Boys and his other heroes from January 6th parading, too. Heck, maybe they'll even get a medal ceremony. Perhaps he'll even name a street after them. From Black Lives Matter Plaza to the January 6th Square?

Good for her. Glad to see people not taking his BS.

It's inside the Capitol, isn't it? Why don't they just storm the place again? Trump said that was perfectly acceptable last time. He likes it when angry mobs storm the Capitol.

Luckily they knew they were getting tickets to an event hosted by a known grifter and conman, so they'll have no reason to complain 👌

Now just watch Trump claim all these people are supporting him. 🙄
 
Trump instigated the TikTok ban. Now it looks like he's u-turned after discovering it helped his presidential campaign.

So much for national security concerns.

He once said

@realDonald Trump
Has anybody noticed that everyone wants to go after, and destroy, TIKTOK due to China influence and National Security. When I wanted to disable TIKTOK 3 years ago, I was met with opposition from RINOS to Democrats to everyone else. They actually went to court in an effort to stop me. Now they realize I was right, and have changed their tune. Sadly, I've been right about everything!

It's like Turkeys voting for Thanksgiving. I don't feel sorry for him/them. Too bad for us who voted for Harris. I warned them daily about SSI, Medicare, Medicaid, and other social safety net programs. All I got was laughing emojis and "trump2024."

From Threads:
The choice this country made to put the epitome of everything wrong & evil in life, all wrapped up into 1 human shape, bc of that choice, the world as we know it, will change forever. The World, it watches everything the United States does & says. We are not in this for only 4 years. Seniors will live out our remaining time here under authoritarian rule only to get worse hour by hour, day by day until we pass. It will take decades to reverse the damage about to be inflicted upon us all. Be kind💔

Oh dear, he didn't realise he is nothing but a non productive work unit, sorry human resource to the billionaire club?
 
All those rallies and the guy has never seen Trump?

Tordjman said he planned to spend the night on the street next to the arena, despite temperatures forecast to plunge to around 19 degrees Fahrenheit (-7 degrees Celsius). He said he had yet to see Trump in person.
"This is a once in a lifetime opportunity," he said.
Large swaths of the streets around the U.S. Capitol and White House have been blocked off by steel fences since last week, and police were visible throughout the city.

How soon after the inauguration will Trump declare a national emergency? And martial law.
Click to expand...
It will only happen when he feels directly threatened. So I am guessing about 6 months--that's when his dementia becomes so obvious that his sycophants can no longer hide it, and when they come to involuntarily have him committed--that's when he will declare an emergency.
 
Melania has launched her own Meme Coin and Donald's has just lost 30% of it's value.

It's all a giant scam. Donald's Meme Coin was already 80% allocated before it was launched. It's a classic pump and dump rugpull.
 
It won't happen, but I'd love it if the Bidens, Harris and husband, Obama and the Clintons just didn't show up on Monday.
I may hang a black wreath on my door Monday.

With moving indoors and bitterly cold, Trump won't get the crowds he is so obsessed with. Love it.

Impossible to parse. Cause or effect? I think it's largely the cause -- he knew he wouldn't get a magnificent Mall picture (whether due to the cold or not) so he's moving it inside to make the crowd look "big" in a small space. Oh, I think I just "got" the candy reference someone made earlier!
