Donald Trump's inauguration is going to be "strictly traditional" and the President-elect has no interest in courting big Hollywood stars or entertainers to hobnob or perform at the events ... TMZ has learned.
Sources involved in inaugural prep tell TMZ ... Trump is hardly engaged in the party planning at all. We're told he does feel, however, the parties should not be "over the top," but he's leaving all the details to others.
One Trump insider says the Prez-elect is "obsessed" with energizing American business and industry ... the parties just aren't his thing.
Yeah parties aren't his thing. Right.
Trump loves parties, and everybody knows it. Hell he even showed up to a party that he was not invited to.
The source also claimed that Trump did not want a bunch of "big names" at his party because they certainly did not help Hillary's campaign to succeed.
Please, does anybody really buy that?
No Trump is being pissy because no A list celebrities want to perform at his inauguration/white supremacist cross burning on January 20th.
Obviously nobody who did not like having celebrities around him would have hosted a show called "Celebrity Apprentice."
Personally I find this hysterical.
The guy is so thin skinned that I dread the first time that some foreign leader snubs him or hurts his stubby vulgarian feelings.

ReplyDelete"When it comes to hot-button issues around race, gender or general hatred of liberal ideas, that’s where you get a cohesive set of opinions from Trump voters."That’s why it’s important, especially for journalists, not to assume that the phrase “drain the swamp” is meant by Trump, or heard by his supporters, as describing the influence of special interests or lobbyists on Beltway politics. Yes, that’s what most politicians mean when they use that phrase, but there’s reason to believe that for Trump, it’s a vague phrase that allows his followers to define “the swamp” however they want. And what they really want to do is HATE on liberals." Alexandr Dugin, who bluntly defines “the swamp” as anti-racists, humanitarian liberals and LGBT activists."Drain the swamp” started out sounding like a catchy way of describing the undue influence of the rich and powerful, and no doubt many people who use it intend it that way. But it’s time to admit that it’s morphed into hateful rhetoric that has terrifying undertones"

I heard on TV for the first time not one Washington DC high school band will perform in the parade and I heard a racist alt-right motorcycle gang wants to be in the parade.
The question is will Trump and his wife (who will be visiting Washington DC) will have the nerve to get out in the parade and walk like President Obama and First Lady Michelle did? If it looks like they ate too much, it probably will be from the bullet proof vests?
Walk?
DeleteThis is the guy who rode a freaking escalator down to make his announcement to run for president.

Here's a good idea going around on FacePlace:
ReplyDeleteYou may have heard that the Trump people are freaking out and frantic that the performers for the Inauguration will be limited to Kid Rock and Ted Nugent.
So.... You know what would be really smart? If there was a televised "freedom concert" with celebrities (Madonna, Katy Perry, U2, John Legend, Common, Sting, Harry Belafonte, Herbie Hancock, Ziggie Marley, Paul Simon, Bruno Mars, and others come to mind) that aired at the same time as the inauguration. Imagine how furious "Tiny Fingers" would be. He would totally lose all the ratings.
And what if all the proceeds of the concert went to: Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, Lambda Legal, NAACP, CAIR, MADD, GLAAD, CAAAV, DRUM, AADF, The Innocence Project and so many more non-profits?
Alec Baldwin should MC the event dressed as Trump as he does on SNL.

I would think that A-listers know that performing could be detrimental to their careers.
ReplyDeleteThey can't even bribe them with ambassadorships. They've tried.
DeleteYeah, he's doing what he did when no one wanted to perform at his nomination gig. He was so all-talk about how his convention would be unlike any other and he was going to have such great talent performing there, and then no one wanted anything to do with it. And the talk about Marc Burnett being involved died down--he couldn't have that and such a failure of a production after all. Same thing--Burnett included--is happening now. Once Bocelli said he'd not perform, we know Trump accepted that he was in big trouble now, and he's totally changed his tone.
ReplyDeleteHave they determined if the inauguration will be in Washington DC or Moscow?
ReplyDeleteEither place, the Moscow Ballet could perform.
DeleteHas anybody heard if Trump's token black Omarosa (that's what some people called her) will be in the parade? For some reason, I noticed when Trump appeared at an African-American church and other events that showed he was friendly with African-Americans he brought his black along with him. Does anybody remember seeing his black when he was speaking at his high spirited alt-right rallies? I don't know if he btought his black with him.
ReplyDeleteThere has to be some country singers appearing on inauguration day? Some of them depend on Trump's deplorables for a living.

DeleteAnd Melamona's will be I.A.( short for illegal alien) and Baron's is going to be Stump since he is about as intelligent as one.
Supposedly, Trump told Bocelli thanks but no thanks. If true, we know it's only because Trump will want to have no performers (other than the kid and pry some military personnel and country music yahoos singing the Natl anthem) rather than a skimpy lineup. If he nixes the few he could have, then he can spin the story as he wishes.

Why is it that they are they more important than any other regular old American that they get special access and red carpet treatment? These millionaires get white house dinners for free and the rest of us regular suckers pay for it and get nothing.
ReplyDeleteMaybe because many of the "celebrities" have talent? Suddenly you're worried about the little guys not getting invited to White House dinners? Where was your outrage when a movie star (Reagan) came to the WH and there were celebrities galore attending events there? It is a well-worn tradition that celebrities are invited to WH events.

Immediately following the election win, Trump's people started raising huge amounts of cash for the inauguration and someone leaked that they'd be going well over what Obama had spent. All sorts of activity started up and this inauguration was supposed to be huge and make all previous ones look skimpy. It's a fact that he went hog wild now raising the money needed for an event like no other. So, of course he wanted a big party with many stars at it. He failed at this during the convention but thought that with the actual 11/8 win everyone would now come running.
ReplyDeleteIf they turn down the party they can keep the inauguration money they raised over and above the cost. It's the Trump way.
DeleteI notice Eric and Jr. had their little pay to play plans for their "Foundation" nipped in the bud. Poor stupid little grifters. Maybe Granny Sarah can show them how it's done.

Donald Trump Once Allegedly Asked If It Was "Wrong" to Be "Sexually Attracted" to Ivanka
The line was reportedly deleted from a Washington Post column before publication.
"This isn't the first time Trump's questionable references to his daughter have surfaced. He said on the Howard Stern Show in 2003 that "she's got the best body." The next year, he was back on Stern agreeing with the radio host that she was "A piece of ass." He also admitted on The View that, "I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."

The Wrap continues that it’s not just A-list performers who aren’t willing to perform at the Trump inauguration, but some marching bands too.
ReplyDeleteNo marching bands in the area applied. The deadline was extended and they still didn't.
DeleteI wonder if Trump will force one of the military branches to have one of their bands perform.
The Air Force Academy had a marching band at their graduation. I'll be Annapolis has one and they're a lot closer. They could probably be forced. Not sure how far away West Point is.
Howard University's band used to march in inaugural parades but they're passing this one up as is at least one other Washington DC area high school band that has performed in past inaugural parades. Members are concerned about racism. I don't blame them.
DeleteI think there are usually military bands in the parade so I'm sure that they'll participate. Whether the cadets (or midshipmen) in the various academies like it or not, Trump will be their commander-in-chief so, if their bands march, they'll be in the parade.
Maybe Putin could send a Red Army band to take part.

‘Our first crybaby President’: Internet hammers Trump after he again whines about losing popular vote
ReplyDelete...Since it seems that Trump still feels insecure that 54% of voters in the 2016 election picked a different candidate, the internet wasted no time rubbing salt in his wounds by mocking his popular vote loss to Clinton — and by noting that his 43% favorable rating is by far the lowest for any incoming president in recorded history.

ReplyDeleteHere’s The Law That Poses The Greatest Threat To Donald Trump
The Stock Act’s author explains the insider trading law will be extremely difficult for the next president to follow if he keeps his businesses.
By walking onto the inaugural platform outside the Capitol and putting his hand on a Bible on Jan. 20, Donald Trump may be stepping closer to committing a felony than he ever imagined when he launched his unlikely bid to become the nation’s 45th president.
That’s because Congress passed a law in 2012 called the Stock Act, which explicitly bars the president, members of Congress and senior executive branch officials from using their insider knowledge to make money.
...The law is clear in saying that the president cannot do anything that resembles helping friends, family members or himself to make a profit off of information he gains from doing his job.
“It’s the same as it applies to the American people,” said Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), the lead author of the Stock Act. “You cannot trade on nonpublic information. That is a criminal violation of the law.”
“The president, the vice president, Cabinet secretaries, all of them have to play by the same rules as every other American,” Gillibrand added. “And that’s what the Stock Act ensures.”
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/stock-act-donald-trump_us_5859c045e4b0d9a594566921
Republicans have a majority and they can repeal the Stock Act. (Then put it back in place when a Democrat becomes president.)
