A rising number of Democratic lawmakers have said they plan to boycott President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration at the US Capitol on 20 January.
More than 50 House Democrats are refusing to watch as Mr Trump is sworn in as the 45th US president amidst a feud between the newly elected president and the civil rights activist and congressman, John Lewis.

Why is there a boycott?
Mr Lewis, a revered member of the 1960s struggle, sparked controversy on Friday when he called Mr Trump's victory illegitimate because of Russia's alleged interference in the election.

The president-elect hit back on Twitter, attacking the Georgia lawmaker as "all talk, talk, talk - no action or results", which prompted a wave of outrage from people saying if anyone embodied action, it was the 76-year-old.
Dozens of members of Congress have announced they will skip the event.

Let them. Fukum. I am sure there has to be a certain number of witnesses but other than that, seriously, if I were being sworn in I would not hire any entertainment either. This is a government function not the academy awards, we don't need the Rockettes or any other entertainers.

Fukum.

Nobody will attend. The protesters will rejoice. And then you'll wake up and roll away from the wet spot.

never seen one - all razzledazzle are they? Still, he has other avenues to explore like the travelling circus.

Or is it more they will unleash Trump from its cage to the dulcet tones of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvDMlk3kSYg

Republican Calvin Coolidge was known as a man of few words during his elected presidency. Many think it was because TWITTER had not been invented yet. The KKK lost much influence during his second term.

Seriously... just because we like their voice or think someone is a good actor doesn't mean that we should give any weight to their political ideas.

Wait. Wait. What if more than one of those selections show up? MSNBC just reported the Red Army landing on Fire Island with Janice Warren and several cats taking point.

It's okay.

Libs are all just in the 7 stages of grief.

They are over the shock and denial.

And guilt.

Now it's all anger stage.

It'll get to depression eventually.

And then things will start looking up.

Some are still in denial, some are trying to bargain...

There are 5 stages of grief - not 7 - and anger is the second stage - not the fourth.

1. shock/disbelief
2. anger
3. bargaining
4. depression
5. acceptance

FYI, you are on a worldwide forum, and not every culture on the planet believes the exact same things that you do

Seems the elder Bush has pneumonia, can't sit outside in January....and Barbara had to be hospitalized too. That would take them off the "social" hook.

(For the record, I did not vote. I was both out of the country and unimpressed by either)
