In reply to the discussion: Trump draws embarrassingly tiny crowd for National Christmas Tree lighting [View all]FirstLight
(15,771 posts)15. First & Last Line of article WIN
"Once again, his is smaller than Obama's"

which is why he ran for Pres...and why he's going King George these days....the need for glory/admiration...but no character to invoke it.

To top it off he's holding it at 2pm when they're working. Apparently he's hoping none will show up
