I suppose if they ALL were there should be a venue change, but as it stands, not to worry.

Cut it out. They are simply throwing tantrums, and you make it into some grand conspiracy and I don't want to see any more of this ridiculous crap in this thread.

Whoa. I saw some of this nonsense on X, and thought it was out of bounds. My last words were “not to worry”.
Didn’t mean to to rile anyone up. Apologies

Don't track that garbage in here.

Last week, I deleted about a third of the posts in this thread because it was negative, silly shit, the worst of it being that Biden will resign to allow Harris to become the first female POTUS. That is beyond stupid, and after that was posted, anyone who puts such shit in this thread is going to hear from me.

Use your head, and don't ask members if they think that Democrats have a grand conspiracy in place, involving scores if not hundreds of people. Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. THINK

From here on out, it's going to be nothing but sunshine and lollipops in this thread, and I am not asking.

A local bar owned by a very cool lady is having an inauguration day party starting at 11 a.m. that day. I think I need to find a way to attend.

I have Monday off now, I’ll be doing a toast.

With my latest Amazon order I bought 2 more Trump glasses. I have given a few away to the like-minded.

You could have a drinking game in the bar. Take a sip every time thinking about the inauguration makes you smile.

Be sure to have a designated driver. Under those rules, I'd need a designated walker.

Have my Trump glass ready. Need to pick up an appropriate bourbon. An appealing label for the day

Perhaps four inches of snow for the DC area on Sunday. But remember; neither rain nor snow, nor dark of night, nor (insert your own catastrophic event here) shall stop DJT from his inauguration.

Being retired, I don't have to go to work either, so a toast or two or three will definitely be in order. That hardly seems enough celebration though. Maybe I'll go to the store today and pick up a nice brisket or some ribs to smoke on Monday.

Indeed, I’d need a liver transplant by 12:05.

Dammit

Just saw the breaking news that they are moving it indoors.

And DC is supposed to get 2 to 4 inches of snow Sunday afternoon or evening.

In 3 days, America will be great again. Never been prouder to be an American.

I bought a brand new flag few days ago as our current one is all faded. Just in time for Monday.

Welcome home Mr. President!!!

Trump Inauguration to be Moved Indoors Due to Extreme Cold

Key Points

- President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural ceremony will be moved indoors due to the extreme cold set to grip Washington, D.C., on Monday.
- “There is an Arctic blast sweeping the Country. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.

President-elect Donald Trump said his inaugural ceremony will be moved indoors due to the extreme cold set to grip Washington, D.C., on Monday.

“There is an Arctic blast sweeping the Country. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way,” Trump said in a Truth Social post on Friday.

“Therefore, I have ordered the Inauguration Address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda,” he wrote.

Trump’s post included screenshots from the National Weather Service forecasting “dangerously cold wind chills” between six and 10 degrees Fahrenheit on Monday around midday.

The decision will make Trump’s the first presidential inauguration to be held indoors since 1985, when then-President Ronald Reagan was sworn in for his second term. That ceremony was also moved indoors due to bitterly cold temperatures.

Trump in Friday’s post said that D.C.’s Capital One Arena will be opened for a live viewing of his inauguration, and that it will also host a scheduled presidential parade.

“I will join the crowd at Capital One, after my Swearing In,” Trump wrote.

The president-elect added that the rest of his inauguration ceremonies, including a MAGA rally at the Capitol One Arena on Sunday afternoon, will “remain the same.”

“Everyone will be safe, everyone will be happy, and we will, together, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” he wrote.

It does not matter whether indoors or outdoors. It will be Glorious!

Congratulations President Trump.

^^ It matters if you planned to be there, along with HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of other Trump Supporters, for this historic (and Glorious!) once in a lifetime experience!

People will show up by the thousands on that day to witness this day. I know I will, if I live nearby. This is a historical moment. Indoor or Outdoor, people will be there.

God Bless America, God Bless President Trump and his family/staff, God Bless those who support him.

(And God, please DO NOT bless those who don't support Pres. DJT )
