Anyone been talking about the continuing hilarity of Trump trying to find anyone to play at the inaguration? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/02/rebecca-ferguson-says-she-will-play-trump-inauguration-if-she-can-sing-strange-fruit Rebecca Ferguson says she will play Trump inauguration if she can sing Strange Fruit posted:I’ve been asked and this is my answer. If you allow me to sing Strange Fruit, a song that has huge historical importance, a song that was blacklisted in the United States for being too controversial. A song that speaks to all the disregarded and downtrodden black people in the United States. A song that is a reminder of how love is the only thing that will conquer all the hatred in this world, then I will graciously accept your invitation and see you in Washington. Best Rebecca X The inauguration thing is so small in comparison to all the other poo poo swirling around him but I love all the sniping at him.

By all means Donnie, land at the inauguration in your helicopter. It will only highlight how pathetic it all is.facialimpediment posted:

I love it because you know it's making him furious. He seems to have a powerful need to be liked and accepted and when his approval rating tanks (again it's extremely low for a president-elect and this is typically when a president is their most popular) and there's protestors everywhere he goes

Getting shunned by celebrities probably hurts him more than the disdain of regular people. Remember the star studded RNC with Scott Baio?

Someone said it before, one of the most disturbing things in all this is that our soon to be president is making nuclear proliferation and foreign policy demands via loving Twitter. He's gonna get in a Twitter slap fight with China and they're just gonna hit the loving button because they're sick of it one day.

Bill Nye is heading to Netflix with a new show. Don't have a clue why this took so long, or why he's been absent from tv for 10+ years.

Welp, in a hilariously unprecedented reversal of a congressional decision made hours mere hours prior, I guess I'm wrong about the OCE gut. Whatever the reasons behind the trump tweets, (to distract from the false gm tweet?) He accomplished a good thing today.

Yeah it was mostly all of the above. Partly phone calls, partly trump's bullshit have-it-both-ways tweets, partly due to media coverage, and partly was already on the way to death due to it killing any chance of the overall rules package being passed (due to democrats). https://twitter.com/costareports/status/816373917900161024

Keep in mind Trump only criticized the timing of the vote. He's cool with the content, just thought it was premature.

The Capitol switchboard was swamped with tens of thousands of calls today from angry constituents. Representatives were getting hammered on Twitter. They caved because for once they sensed they might face a political price for doing something unpopular. I suspect in a few months they'll try again.
