WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Donald J. Trumps plans for a triumphal Inauguration were upended over the weekend when a karaoke machine that had been engaged to perform at the event abruptly backed out.
In an official statement, the karaoke machine said that it was withdrawing because it did not want my participation at the Inauguration to in any way be construed as an endorsement of Donald Trump.
The President-elect wasted no time in lashing out at the karaoke machine, taking to Twitter in the early hours of the morning to call the entertainment device a loser and sad.
But Kellyanne Conway, Trumps adviser, attempted to minimize the machines departure in an appearance on Fox News. Naturally, were disappointed in the karaoke machines decision, but we still have Jackie Evancho, she said.

Curb -URINE- thusiasm (phrase is courtesy of Trevor Noah)
and then there's this conversation which showed up in my inbox
NIXON:No way you can pull off a more scandal-ridden presidency than I did
TRUMP: Hold my beer
NIXON: Wait! This isn't beer.

Found on Facebook: Cheaper and more valuable than Trump's "Wall"

What needed to happen at the press conference --- maybe we can learn for next time
Mr. Trump disrespected the reporter from CNN - and then threatened him with removal should he ask a question in spite of being told by Trump not to.
The entire press corps should have stood up and left.
That's a way to deal with a bully.

Listening to the missing meat of the "presser" opening statement of Mister Trump
greatest - real - tremendous - beautiful - amazing - massive - a lot of good news coming - phantastic - truly - top of the line - great - be greatly impressed
I will now take a nap and wait for all this bounty to attach itself to something real.

Was planning to post this visual after the President's speech,
but I can already tell I will be too emotional then.

So many things along the way remind me of Bernie
Like this car door on my walk through the Southern Snow this morning.
Note, there are even tiny rivers of tears running down.
