I don't know if I'll be able to get here on cable TV in Merida, Mexico, but I'd like to see how he makes a fool of himself one more time during such an important event. It's the beginning of Idiocracy, part 2.

Hope nuclear football is in responsible hands...
Good heavens, I didn't watch it! But I am watching the protests!
I did notice the very low turnout. He tried to photoshop himself into a picture of a someone else's inauguration on his Twitter account. As he would say, FAKE, SAD!

Mehreen has opened a thread, named 'mindset', exploring similar themes...
If you are invited, are you already checking your wardrobe for your newest tux or most worn jeans?
If not, what's the plan? To throw a small party: caviar and champagne? To pray in the face of the unknown, potentially disastrous? To hope that papers granting permanent residency somewhere at least 5k miles away from the States arrive before Jan 20? -:) To watch emotionlessly?
