Trump’s Beyoncé-free Easter Egg Roll
POLITICO ^ | 04/16/2017 | Nancy Cook

Posted on 04/16/2017 10:29:09 AM PDT by Trump20162020

Last year’s White House Easter egg roll featured a surprise visit from Beyoncé; athletes from the NBA and Washington Redskins; and a performance by actress and singer Idina Menzel, the voice behind that catchy song from the movie “Frozen.”

This year, the big act for the Trump administration is the Martin Family Circus, a six-person family band from Nashville that’s driving up to D.C. for the annual event in an RV.

How fun for the kids! Sounds like it might be a decent, down-to-earth group. I’m sick of low-life rapper types being employed for events paid for with our tax dollars.

Yes!

Trump wants the kids at the WH to enjoy themselves and learn the improtance of the Easter story. He doesn’t go for c-list celebrities to try and boost his own profile

Cnn did a bit on this WH Easter. How the WH wasn’t prepared for this. Complained that mooch had a planner to plan it and Melinia doesn’t have one yet. Pffft!

Well, Mooch had the largest First Lady staff ever. Nothing was too good for her.

Not everything needs a planning committee and numerous subcommittees. Would be nice to just invite kids to come over and celebrate Easter. No rap concert needed!

Just watched the promo and a couple videos of this group. Pretty talented.

Have to laugh at the atheist/humanist MSM, trying to make it sounds like a national disgrace that the Easter Egg Roll was somehow not being planned.

I seem to remember the Obama White House had a very hard time getting the event organized back in 2009.

Later Michelle Obama glitzed it up with slutty celebrities like Beyonce – whom she praised as the 'perfect' role model for her own daughters.

Sounds like Trump is getting the focus back to child-appropriate, family-oriented entertainment.

In other words, a star-studded cavalcade of celebrities that had nothing to do with ordinary people. I'd rather have a president who celebrates normal Americans - celebrities get enough attention, we don't elect presidents to fawn on them some more.

If memory serves, they were on Larry’s Country Diner once (RFD channel show I watched with my dad)

They did a rendition of ‘in my room’- I think the Beach Boys- was so impressed.

Isn’t it funny how they seem to criticize “regular” people attending the event? Didn’t they learn a thing about the election? Nobody gives a crap about the Hollywood elite. The last person I would want to see at an egg hunt is Beyonce who would make it all about her and not the kids.

How the hell is Beyonce a major celebrity anyway?
From what i heard of her stuff and compared to the rest of Today’s “music” my opinion is that she is absolutely horrible.
Songs sung by a rabid chipmunk
Guess when that masses are told that the crap she sings is good the have to believe it and like it or else be ridiculed as being not hip and cool.
