Trump inauguration will feature shorter parade so the new president can get 'some work done' before ceremonial balls

President Barack Obama's parades took up some two hours of his day
Dwight D. Eisenhower's presidential library says his 1957 event took three and a half hours to complete
'This is going to be a shorter parade, an hour to hour and a half or so so he can go to work,' a spokesman for Donald Trump's inaugural committee says
Trump is doing away with much of the pomp and circumstance the Obamas added to the agenda in 2009; they attended 11 balls in all to his three
He's taking part in events for five days like the Obama's did his inaguration will be lower key, with fewer celebrities

I can't anybody believes this sh!t. I think that even some of the most rabid voters are feeling a bit creeped out by his obviously not "pro working man" cabinet appts (what a joke). They have no idea how bad it will get...

his kind. I occasionally pop over there just what to see what the morons of the world are thinking, but I can rarely stomach it for more than five minutes. Reading the articles and the comments literally makes me physically ill. I'm serious. I really feel like throwing up after reading some of that tripe.

(and that Michelle walked in high heels, just sayin'). All his bluster about HRC's alleged "lack of stamina" was the same projection of his own issues as we saw when he tried to portray her as "crooked" and "corrupt." He will be going somewhere for a long nap before the evening's parties. Trump...work? What a joke. He'll be taking a shorter route because that's all he can handle. There's no shame in that, at his age, but there is a lot of shame in lying about everything.

More likely nobody wants to march IN the parade.

Unless he could bribe a couple of troops of Girl Scouts to do the honors. Maybe he could threaten to sue the parents if their daughters didn't want to march.

I would LOVE to see white hoods out there supporting their new leader JUST so I could say I told you so. They would love to support him publicly.
