One of greatest POTUS of my generation will become President again.

Heard it before (1960):

Tiger Lily : Peter Pan is the sun and the moon and the stars!

[all cheer]

Tiger Lily : Peter Pan is the love of delight!

[all cheer]

Tiger Lily : Peter Pan is the bravest and strongest of all boys!

[all cheer]

Peter Pan : Yes, I know. I don't say it to boast, it's because I cannot tell a lie.

Well, the extremely rich ones anyway...

Trump campaigned as a populist defender of the American working class, but he has put some of his richest donors in commanding roles in the top reaches of Government. A number will oversee the very industries that produced their fortunes.

“These are really rich people,” said Kara Swisher, a journalist who chronicles the tech industry and is a former opinion writer for the New York Times. “As much as they like to have an image of not being spendy, they’re all really spendy. They all have private planes, they all have assistants, they have people who get them the kind of nuts they want.”

A few of the billionaires will presumably not need homes in Washington. Charles Kushner, a real estate executive whose companies are worth US$2.9b, according to Forbes, is to live in Paris as the US ambassador to France. Trump pardoned Kushner, a major donor to Trump’s 2024 campaign, in the last days of his first term. In 2004, Kushner pleaded guilty to tax evasion, retaliating against a federal witness and lying to the Federal Election Commission.

This is very apt.....even if posted previously. And the poor folk and average working folk fell for it:-

It takes a special kind of woke to deny

the undeniable!

“Our breakdown records 83 billionaires supporting Harris and 52 backing Trump so far (see the lists for both below)”

the numbers of people wanting to attend and the huge amount of foreign leaders and dignitaries is astounding. This is one of the best inaugurations in history. Weird how people wanted to fight and resist and suddenly Trump is the most popular guy on the planet.

Cryingdick · January 20

When he and Trump get in the limo Biden has to basically crawl to get in. Lol How awkward.

Celsius · January 20

Already tariffs seem to be a lot of hot air.

Disappointed, but not surprised.

Pence in da house. Lol

But you didn't fall for it, xylophone, because you're a special kind of smart…

Protectionism is protectionism. A policy and its effects have nothing to do with the personal life of those implementing it. Latest example, TikTok now 50% US-owned.

Trump boasts about saving TikTok at DC rally day before inauguration: ‘We’re going to make a lot of money’

Yes, so long as they are homosexual and IPOC.

I attended the inauguration in 2009 to attend one. I thought about attending today, but the weather is nasty. I should have stayed in Thailand. It's cold here.

He mentioned tariffs while he was ripping the dems a new butt h. . .

He brilliantly conducted a speech of condemnation perpetrated by the past

The Bidens stand outside the White House greeting the President Trump as he gets out of the Limo and Joe says,

“Welcome Home “.

Calling Trump a fascist, likening him to Hitler and so much more before and during the 2024 campaign AND then having to cheer and clap for him during his inauguration address today must have been one tasty turd sandwich Biden and harris had to eat! LOL.

Feckless redefined, and forever branded liberal failures and losers! Good riddance. America is back.
