Trump Inauguration Thread

Prediction: No apology tour from this guy. He is no politician, he is no orator clearly… but who really cares anymore, shiny and polished got us here.

I enjoyed the scorched earth fuck the haters mentality of that speech. He wasn’t elected to play nice. First time the word “exterminate” was ever used in an inauguration.

I don’t think it was us versus them for other countries. Just “America First”. Also the “no room for prejudice” and “we all bleed red” comment was cool. I honestly believe that he isn’t a racist/bigot/homophobe/sexist. Hell he was a New York progressive democrat for years.

One thing. Don’t know how he can stay “anti-establishment” for 4-8 years. If he does act like a maverik and do his own thing this is going to be fun to watch. Making popcorn.

Just initial reactions. Whatever happens you can bet this president is unprecedented.

You might even say he was unpresidented

That makes more sense.

I do.

Who we are at our core can be as important as what we do.

Doesn’t mean we run around acting self-righteous…that’s even worse…and is why I emphasize BASIC decency and respect…

He didn’t directly call out Obama but he indirectly did by saying the country is a mess.

He blamed the “establishment” and “washington” 3 times. He sounded like he meant all of them.

I’m glad to hear that.

I picked up on that, too.

And the crowd has turned ugly.

Adios homo rights!

Anyone watching Periscope to see videos of the protesting?

I’m pleased Trump knows how to salute. Every time I saw Obama do crap like salute with a coffee cup in his hand, it took all my will not to infiltrate security and punch him in the face.

Small things grate.

Watched some clips from various news outlets, BBC News is actually the first clip I saw, couple of guys in hoodies and masks going through some big ol’ windows in the front of a shop. Sounds like the vast majority of the protesters have been peaceful, but there have been a couple groups, present both last night and today, that have been downright ornery.

Edit: Just checked up on em, looks like around 100 were arrested for vandalism and destruction of property.

Was the page just edited to only have those minor changes or was entire sections replaced and they just wrote an article because the key liberal talking points got removed as if they were targeted specifically?

Ya, I’ve seen those clips. I usually click over to periscope to see what’s happening live. Watching a bunch of idiots burn flags and other shit they found on the street.

Told you you couldn’t trust this guy… lol.

Yes it’s time.

Obama is finally gone and we have testosterone back in the Whitehouse[/quote]

Obama is obviously more alpha than Trump. How many alpha males do you know who peacock around and talk themselves up constantly like they’re the greatest thing ever?

and wasn’t his testosterone level revealed on Dr Oz at 400? Isn’t that on the low side?

I’m sorry guys, but this man is a walking, talking facade of a man.

Who talks tough about Mexico, then goes to Mexico and sucks on the president’s nutsack? Then he comes back and starts up the tough talk again.

Who spends years trying to prove Obama wasn’t born in the uS, calls him the founder of ISIS and the worst president ever. Yet when he meets him is very cordial and quite complimentary of him.

If you knew a guy who did that what would you think of him? Hopefully you’d think he’s a little bitch who talks tough until he’s face to face.

I was watching some of those shortly after the swearing in ceremony. I just don’t see any sense in that, unless they want a guaranteed ass beating by riot police.
