Gotta wonder ...

… how pissed-off Trump was when no one showed up in DC today to attend his triumphant second inauguration.

It’s not just the humiliation of even his most deranged supporters not bothering to show up – he was really counting on the cash they’d be spending at his downtown hotel, where rooms booked for March 3rd and 4th were priced at three times the usual rate.

It’s a sad day in Trumpville when the sheep you’d hoped to fleece can’t be counted on to show up for the shearing.

And a money generator, and power to hurt other republicans who won't kiss his ring. Expect a bs excuse to be coming, and accusations towards others for it.

I read somewhere that 4 people did show up. Not sure if they had rice, confetti, or balloons.

that weren't front page, he just went on to the next spiel.

Just like he did when the birther nonsense died out. If he can't milk it, it doesn't exist.

The worst one was the Central Park 5. After buying full page newspaper ads demanding their deaths, when it came out they didn't do it, just cold, stony silence.
