"Trump has always understood the importance of visuals and has worked hard to project an image of an invincible leader. Moving the inauguration indoors takes away that image, though, and people who have spent thousands of dollars to travel to the capital to see his inauguration are now unhappy to discover they will be limited to watching his motorcade drive by them. On social media, one user posted: 'MAGA doesnât realize the symbolism of moving the inauguration inside: The billionaires, millionaires and oligarchs will be at his side, while his loyal followers are left outside in the cold. Welcome to the next 4+ years.' "

Talk about showing absolute contempt for your supporters! The ones that spent thousands and traveled to be told they can't be part of it - no refunds but enjoy your "commemorative" piece of paper - and now he won't even let them watch from outside on the Mall!! And will they still kiss his ass and send him money and do his bidding? I'll take bets on that. THESE are American Sheeple.
I keep seeing posts on X about Trumpers who bought tickerts to the outdoor event but are not invited to the indoor event. No word on refunds but I can't see Drumpf giving money back without a court fight.
He's calling those tickets "commemorative". Always with the grift. Always.
22 degrees for JFK. It's not the weather, it's the crowds/ appearance management -it is much easier to fill an enclosed space with sycophants and have it look popular.

That, and in the cold his uncontrolled flatulence would be visible.
That soft pudgy whiny putz. It was 18 degrees on the Mall during Obama's first inauguration and there was a good breeze to boot.
It ain't the cold. He's worried his hair will get futzed up. That, or he's realized that not a lot of people were coming for the ceremony.
