I understood the ceremony would include a five-deferment salute.

Tickets not required. Transition team expected 200,000 at least. Maybe 10,000 people will show up. Far short of even that number apparently.

Well, frick, I hadn’t realize they already declared America dead and buried. Isn’t this jumping the gun a little, Mr. Vice PeePee?

yeah she did. the two young grandchildren were infinitely more somber and appropriate about the affair.

Get used to this…random events meant to seem serious used as distractions from the important issues that the Trump administration and Republicans want to keep under cover. With all the things they want to do, in order to get away with it will require a lot of bread and circuses.

Yes, the Trump strategy is filed under Distraction 101. Remember Trump did not honor Veterans Day this past November in any meaningful way. But, today they either want to gin up crowds in anticipation of tomorrow or deflect from some pretty ugly confirmation hearings.

Well by rights zombies should have reached up through the ground and grabbed the Pretender PeePee by the throat.

The whole Arlington experience will be much classier once the cemetery has been privatized.

Ah, you know how earworms are. Sometimes you just can’t get a tune out of your head and you can’t help yourself. Tiffany is no different.

Especially after they get all those boring headstones spray-painted gold.
