FYI... Here's the rundown for all you Obama haters and Trump supporters.
President Barack Obama, 2009: 1.8 million people President Barack Obama, 2013: 1 million people President Donald J. Trump 2017: 250-300,000k people
They had estimated and plans were made for between 800,00 to 900,000k people who would attend Trump's 2017 inauguration, but that didn't happen. However, President Trump during his speech stated there were 10 million people at the inauguration
Some in Trump's team and media have tried to blame low attendance on the weather...Don't blame it on the sun that never shined... By the time Trump took his oath of office, temperatures were in the mid-40s and approaching the 50 degree mark, according to ABC News meteorologist Melissa Griffin. The sky was cloudy, and the rain held off until the 45th president began his inaugural address.
Eight years ago, during Obama's inauguration, it was a frigid 28 degrees Fahrenheit, with wind chills in the mid-teens, according to Griffin.
I'm so glad its OVER .. maybe now everybody will STOP trying to compare Trump to Obama, the record proves the truth everytime.
Even Bill Clinton's 1st and 2nd inaugurations had higher crowd attendance than Trump .. and we will not compare the cost (price tag) of the activities of Trump's inauguration the parade, or the three balls, the three luncheons, and three dinners to Obama's events... Many of the events were held at Trump International Hotel, so guess who got paid???...oooppps! there it is! ... but somebody has the make the money! GO TRUMP!
Maybe it's time for US citizens to pull together and quit worrying about politics??
Unite and conquer your problems
I completely agree with that.
What is incomprehensible to me is this Obama and Hilary worshiping, like a person cult, that I thought could only have happened in the so called "democratic western countries".
I don't go back and forth with people who have no knowledge in what they speak... you don't have a clue outside of what you read in the media of what YOU THINNK is going on... You call Clinton followers a cult, yet here you are defend someone you don't have the slight knowledge about and/ or why Americans protesdt him! You also don't know a thing about why there is protest against Trump whether it turns violent or not ( which should never turn violent).
White protesters at Trump inauguration on yesterday are against Trump, there were no Black protesters against Obama.. child, so what's your point?

As I STATED!... I do not argue with ignorance i.e.. people who don't have a clue/lack information/knowledge/understanding on a subject matter... FYI, I am not a democrat, if this is what you call liberal. Plus my comments don't change the facts nor give credence to your response.
BTW, what is a LIBERAL? of course, as you know the term to be defined according to what you have read over the internet as to what a liberal is suppose to be?
I am a registered REPUBLICAN.... BEEN REGISTERED SINCE I WAS OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE... so NOW WHAT IN YOUR POCKET?? Are you registered ???

I wrote "liberal", need an eye check?
And "lady" stop shouting, the only one showing ignorance here is you
Ccincy: I watched it yesterday and it''' be quite interesting to see what Trump does in his 1st 100 days.
Yeha CeeCee, you saw him sign in the executive order for the repeal of Obamacare to start from what I understood Monday This is all apart of his 100 days, I guess who knows what Trump is going to do, he doesn't even know.
First he said he would not be staying in the WH, and the Trump Tower would the new WH, because the WH would be a step down too far for him in his way of living , then yesterday he said he will be staying there because its American for the President to stay there as his home, because the White House belongs to the people just as he as President belong to the people... DUUUH! his team told him to say these things as we know
I wonder why his wife and son can't move to the WH, and Barron (get that's his name) finishes school in Washington like all the other President children, plus his daughter is pulling her two children out of private school and moving to Washington., and so are all the other members of his team and staff... what so special about Barron's school. That kid would careless and most likely be happy to moved, like most kids!
He's only 10 years old, he has no say-so in the matter in the first place! But I think Trump doesn't care for Melania or the boy to be with him just as he has shown in his behavior toward them during this whole election process, even on yesterday inauguration he is so distant from them. BODY LANGUAGE TELLS MUCH, Melania's facial expression speaks a zillion words! So does the boy's behavior! Trump has serious emotional problems.
Putting lipstick a on a pig doesn't change the pig from being a pig. People dress dogs up in clothes everyday, but the dog is still a dog and is an animal! THAT'S A FACT REGARDLESS WHAT THE OWNER WOULD LIKE TO THINK OF HIS/HER PET AS BEING HUMAN OR HUMAN LIKE!
For sure things are all messed up because TRUMP IS ALL MESSED UP IN HIS MIND!
Well, Trump has cut off mainstream media coverage ONLY FOX NEWS will he release his information, and the New York Post, sound like dictatorship in Russia and all the other eastern and middle eastern countries who have dictators as their leaders and government ran media outlets.. as Trump said today, these are the only ones who speak good things about him in the media... yet his inaugrational speech he spoke highly about unity and even had nerves to quote a scripture passage from the Bible about unity. Psalm 133
Please, don't bite my head off Sista, I just couldn't resist...
Why should I bite your head off? DO YOU FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS IMAGE THAT YOU HAVE POSTED?? If not, then why would YOU ask me not to bite your head off... (don't bite your head off) what is that suppose to mean???
All we ever see from the from American media is images of Trump & Kim katdashion's rump.. Not really a fan of either but I know which one I would rather see eating a bacon sandwich.

lifeisadream: May we, the ones that are not American to criticize American politics, please?
They will never unite, that is the plan keeping the society divided pretending that their vote matters, just the same here.
In theory America is the most sovereign nation in the world being the only country that isn't controlled by the way other countries vote. If America votes for the right the western world goes to the right, it doesn't matter whether Britain's "ruled" by a left-wing government we still, in the whole, go to the right. Even outside the EU Britain has a sovereignty score of maybe 30% where America could be as much as 70%.
In addition to this we're mid-crisis in the heart of the recurring 10 year period in politics which determines how the next 30 or so years will be. Society acts decisively for a moment and then autopilots for ages. Now is the hour of decision.

If today we're entering a period of group rights and national interests - leaving the boomer era of self license and self-celebration behind - we'd spend the next 30 years gradually comprosmising and softening the nationalist approach. The era after would probably the equivalent of Sanders turns. Liberals, patriots, greats; decadents, defenders, re-builders. Today we're moving from the liberal state of decadence to the patriotic stage of defence.

At least that fits the pattern of the trendsetting developed world.
The backward people who received industrial democracy as a gift don't fit the same cycle. The developing world having an advanced stage of development literally transplanted onto its surface changes everything natural. Your personalities won't shine through as all is overwhelmed by this rush to graft the foreign onto yourselves. The developing world will have no natural flow or development as all(many)follow the overwhelming need to copy the character and creations of the white man.
They'll always be imitating some impression they have of us - and this is bad for us too because it feeds the narcissism of the white race - until such time that they culturally evolve to match what they can do materially, lose their inferiority complex, and begin asserting who they really are(like China now does and tackered lackey Mexico doesn't).
