2009 Inauguration (source Boston Globe)

2017 Inauguration

To be fair, the image is around 10 AM. I'm certain another 150,000 people will rush in before the 12:00 swearing in.

Well, yeah. The protesters haven't arrived yet.

Why can't they compare pictures to the 2013 inauguration? I was at that one, and want to point out which pixel is me.

Is this what peaceful and kindhearted leftists are clinging to now that their assassination hopes and dreams appear to be going the same way as their rogue elector hopes and dreams?

To be fair, a key aspect of the assassination plan was to have the shooter escape into the crowd. We clearly put about as much though into this plan as we did into the "Hey, let's nominate Hillary Clinton" plan.

I wonder how long the new Trump as @POTUS Twitter background pic will last, as they coped the Obama inauguration pic, I think they are feeling a challenging size issue...

Jebus! They did it again? I remember Hannity tossing up the '09 Inauguration pic protest image and selling it as from the Obama protest in '09 in DC. I remember us here calling it as bullshit because of the oddness of leaf less trees and people in winter coats... and a lot of people being there.

Proof positive you don't read your own posts.

This above pics must be why Trump's minions used another one from 2009 for his new twitter page.

Donald Trump’s new Twitter background is a photo from the inauguration of Barack Obama.

Oh good, we've moved from desperately clinging to irrelevant things to personal attacks.

Who could have ever guessed that would happen with a bunch of trumphurt leftists.

What are you talking about? Dopey? Doc? Bashful? Happy? Sleepy? Sneezy?
EXPLAIN YOURSELF!

it's either trumphurt leftists or a a recap of your entire posting history on this forum.

that's layered, man... that's profound.

Oh settle down, Trump was never going to draw as big as crowd as Obama.

 

[Sarpedon]

Also, you could apparently book a hotel room in Washington DC right up to the inaugeration. Unlike every previous one in living memory, where they filled up months in advance.

Says the man who is clearly still pissed off despite the fact that his side just assumed control of the entire federal government...

You won. Gloat if you like. But quit being such a whiny little bitch like Trump.

I would consider people giving much less of a crap about a silly inauguration ceremony to be a positive sign with respect to the intelligence of the American people and the health of our democracy.

But then I come here and see all the pathetic trumphurt whining and assassination fantasies and it's hard to sustain the view this is about people not giving a crap.

You don't seem to have a clue about what "my side" is. But other than that, keep it up, you're doing fine.

You won the big inauguration crowd-off, and I think that's worth 2 points in the Constitution.
