This one is for you soulstar.
Guess which inauguration is Obama and which one is Trump:

To be fair, 5 out of every 4 voters in DC lean Democrat, so it's to be expected that less Republicans will show up :p |

Maybe white people don't show up as good in aerial photos. /racist
Btw, where's Waldo?
Seriously how petty and thin skinned can you be to call a press conference to quibble over the inaugural head count and the media coverage of it. |

The more you think about it, the more you realise it's genius.
If you read this year's Edelman Trust Barometer, you'll see most Americans distrust the media (slide #12). So, the more the media criticises the president, and the more the Trump "anti-government" government says journalists are peddling "alternative facts", the stronger Trump looks.
It would be unwise to "let it go" - it strengthens Trump and weakens the media. Why would he miss the opportunity to score some points? |

It's ing weird, especially with something like the electoral college. It's almost like government functions according to an odd, weird aggragate of the education/intelligence, or lack of, of its people. Such a vulnerable proccess depending on how much information the electorate has access to. |

Very true, but then Trump shouldn't promise the "biggest crowds in history" then send his press secretary out right after to say "the crowds only look smaller because it's the first year they used a white covering on the ground which makes it look like there's less people". :haha:
Seriously, I'm loving this administration. It's such a ing train-wreck of comedy gold. |

Actually, this was just genius (refer to my post above).
I've stopped laughing at Trump's tactics quite a while ago because doubling down when facts make him look mental is possibly his greatest move. I used to look down on him as a hopeless protest politician and laugh it off, but I now realise he's freaking Waldo:
I ain't laughing no more :( |

| At least Trump experienced a massive optical illusion. |

I forgot whether I'm supposed to take him literally or seriously.
No one would have cared about the size if he didn't brag. He under delivered then attacked the media for reporting that his account conflicting with reality.
An inauguration is supposed to bring the country together not be a campaign rally. I wouldn't characterize it as genius trying to confirm what your supporters already believe.
Most anything Trump related is rather pointless like having an argument with someone who views facts as inconsequential. Conversation has devolved into a discussion which Survivor contestant has more "game". |
