I think those photos are a little misleading, and I'm not in the business of defending Trump. I don't put any weight in attendance for tomorrow or for Obama 8 years ago. I think the photos of mass people together that will matter are those in the streets on Saturday all over the country.
I was there 8 years ago for Obama. There is weight in what happened in DC 8 years ago. If you were here, you understand. It was unlike anything I've ever seen in this city.
If I don't have a horrible hangover tomorrow, I think I might go. I'm really just damned curious to witness who on earth cares enough to attend this shit show.
But right now I'm just getting drunk. Most everybody in the burbs has the day off tomorrow. People are out. We're all getting drunk
Nope. I have 0% respect for this orange goblin. Not fit to be president...

I got so mixed up on which day he was going to be sworn in I thought I was going to be at work and would have to watch. However, wait it is today right at high noon......well then I don't believe I'm going to watch unless an oil change and tire rotation takes 3 hours these guys are tuned into Fox News.

I always simply hope for the best for the country. Every president does a good job sometimes and every president does a terrible job on all sides sometimes. IMO we havent had a very good president in decades so i dont get too excited about the highs or the lows. People are silly and ridiculous on both sides. Every group feels misrepresented. Everyone wants attention whether its the old people mouthing off about the other candidate or the person on twitter trying to get their hashtag going. Every 4 years noone ever wants to work together and give the other side a chance so why think differently now? LMAO. Have fun with the usual plate.

Trump falls outside the historical normalization you're describing.
Anti-Trump protesters are acting like a bunch of idiots. I don't think you would be seeing anything like this if the tables were turned.
There are always asshats both ways. I can't believe there was a petition with 150k signatures demanding that the Girl Scouts not attend, however. That's just ridiculous. It's not like they were there to start building Trump's wall.

Hopefully the Girl Scouts brought cookies to sell. They could get a civics lesson and make bank at the same time.
