I thought there could be a sort of megathread about the inauguration of Trump. I'm watching the official livestream here:

The host forgot the name or JD Vance, that's pretty funny. I wonder how they feel about this inauguration.

I dont wanna see this shit. Turn it off.

Yeah, it's pretty depressing. It's a bit of morbid curiosity on my part...

Damn, the interventions of politicians(?) are striking to my European ears. "Greatest country on Earth", constant allusions to God...

constant allusions to God…

Oh get ready, that's going to be a big feature coming up... The "evangelicals" won big with this administration... Part of "project 2025" if I remember correctly even involved instituting blasphemy laws...

American exceptionalism gets even more nutty when things are bad

3/4 of the choir doesn't see the conductor 😄 (the band conductor also conducts? Interesting)

The prayer segment was the most self righteous bullshit ever. If God is real, he'd be utterly disgusted with the US and those words would be perceived as an insult.

The oligarchs are arriving 😎

What the fuck is this music? Is this a circus?

Edit: oh right… yes.

[-] thedarkfly@feddit.nl 4 points 10 months ago

Haha how the hosts are mocking how guests dress. "A black... hoodie? Hm."

The singer isn't on time, is he? 👀

I do appreciate the pithy commentary, because I would genuinely rather stab myself in the dick than watch anything Trump or the broligarchs are involved in
