Here’s the vid Matt refers to (click on the tweet for the clip).

“The Washington metro system reported that 193,000 metro rides had been recorded by 11 a.m. ET on Friday, versus 513,000 by that time during Obama’s 2009 inauguration.”

“It was my understanding there would be no math.”

My son just reported that the DC metro was filled with Trump supporters wearing their Trump shit, bad mouthing Obama, and being loud mouthed assholes in general.

I’m ready to fight.

Is this a real tweet or fake tweet?

It is a fake tweet. Just go to Trump’s twitter feed to see what he is really posting.

Ha! Bleachers in front of Trump’s illegal hotel were empty…

“He didn’t really offend people” is one hella low bar…

Baby steps from our new bigly baby prez. Baby steps.

“He didn’t really offend people” is one hella low bar to measure whether or not a speech was unifying. Damn, I hate it down this rabbit hole.

He didn’t tear his clothes off and try to fuck the knothole in the dais, either.

[geofu54]

Except that I’m offended, and I even didn’t read the entire text.

I’m off social media as a New Years resolution. Can someone please tweet this photo comparison at trump 1 billion times for me?

Thanks in advance.

In all fairness to Trump, his inaugural address also excluded any references to cannibalism, infanticide, or congress with goats.

And he is almost one day through his term without grabbing a single pussy (that we know of).

@irasdad

congress with goats

They were in the seats behind him…

[marby]

This is exactly why I don’t put much faith in the argument that “the media is wising up and going to push back on Trump.” That speech was a textbook example of offensive, sharp edges.

The reviews are in:

 There is a gap between those who think that Trump is fit for the presidency, in mind and character, and those who don't. That gap is damn near unbridgeable.  

To my ears, Trump's address was nasty and borderline un-American --- for all it's talk of patriotism and "America First." 

My favorite part of the address was its brevity.

Bill Moyers? Michael Moore?

Nope. Jay Nordlinger, columnist for The National Review.

[denisj]

And how are any of those actions you list beneficial to the " forgotten man?"

[katscherger]

Maybe it wasn’t as cute as the chair in the second (townhall) debate.

[geofu54]

Did he exclude Putin too?

[mantan]

And delivered to an empty Mall they judiciously tried to avoid showing with narrow wide shots for the most part…

[ralph_vonholst]

I’m hoping the restaurant critic for vanity fair reviews his speech.

Parade route from Capital to WH.

As a journalist and TV news reporter, you’d think she’d know the difference between a capital (city) and a capitol (building). You’d be wrong.
