I thought there could be a sort of megathread about the inauguration of Trump. I’m watching the official livestream here:
I dont wanna see this shit. Turn it off.
Yeah, it’s pretty depressing. It’s a bit of morbid curiosity on my part…
The host forgot the name or JD Vance, that’s pretty funny. I wonder how they feel about this inauguration.
Damn, the interventions of politicians(?) are striking to my European ears. “Greatest country on Earth”, constant allusions to God…
constant allusions to God…
Oh get ready, that’s going to be a big feature coming up… The “evangelicals” won big with this administration… Part of “project 2025” if I remember correctly even involved instituting blasphemy laws…
The prayer segment was the most self righteous bullshit ever. If God is real, he’d be utterly disgusted with the US and those words would be perceived as an insult.
The oligarchs are arriving 😎
3/4 of the choir doesn’t see the conductor 😄 (the band conductor also conducts? Interesting)
I do appreciate the pithy commentary, because I would genuinely rather stab myself in the dick than watch anything Trump or the broligarchs are involved in
What the fuck is this music? Is this a circus?
Edit: oh right… yes.
The singer isn’t on time, is he? 👀
I put this on a non inauguration thread but at first I wanted to drink but now I just want to puke.
Haha how the hosts are mocking how guests dress. “A black… hoodie? Hm.”
Oh man hes going on about 2020 and then apparently he thinks this time it was a landslide. so barely winning is a mandate to him and getting nearly 50% is a landslide.
Sorta wierd that the US is on this dark path. I guess the guy 8 years ago was full of shit.
