I thought the liberals said bullying is a bad thing?

I would not want to socialize with those a-holes anyways. Let them stay away, far away.

Skip the ‘entertainment’. Swear him in and let’s get down to business.

I don’t support *entertainers* anyways, so can’t boycott them.

I agree.

Just do the inauguration and get down to business.

Trump can’t take office soon enough for me.

It seems to me that Trump’s campaign did excellent with just canned music, and occasional live local band.

The Hollyweird blacklisters can go to hell.

I’m more insulted being compared to an East German who can be converted to progressivism by an Elton John performance than if they just said they were afraid of being blacklisted. The first assumes that I am intolerant or uneducated, which I am neither. The second is accurate.

The Chinese Communist Party owns Hollywood now so what else would you expect from them

Honestly this reminds me of the Communist Party’s run in with Solidarity. At that time I was convinced Communism was so clearly intellectually bankrupt that it could no longer survive unless they were willing to use force internationally, which of course they weren’t.

Now I believe that the Democrat Party is equally intellectually and morally bankrupt. They will either collapse altogether or they will tear the country apart. If Hillary won, the Republic would have come to a quick end. I’m not sure if Trump’s victory means the tides will turn or if it was only a stay of national execution.

I’m fine with these dim bulbs boycotting. I can easily see one of them pulling a Hamilton just for the chance of insulting Trump.

I would rather watch any of the military bands perform. Make it a patriotic inauguration celebration!! Who needs the Hollyweird crowd?

I hadn’t thought about that. You make a good point.

Agree. We can celebrate when the swamp has been drained and filled in with cement.

Ivanka should donate the painting to a homeless shelter, take the tax credit and let the homeless destroy it.

...but I thought the whole point of being an artist was to express ideas, thoughts, and perspectives through a medium that others can appreciate and enjoy, even those who think differently.

Perhaps the artiste [Da Corte] realized he failed to change Trump's mind, and as such, he's failed artistically, and simply being a wall hanging/covering is too much of an embarrassment?

Good to see there are still some true Americans walking the fruited plains. Personally, Charlie Daniels would be an exceptional performer to see on stage. The Dixie Chicks should be put in storage as the left has done to our Confederate flag.

I find it difficult to believe that Trump doesn’t know exactly who he’s going to invite and it doesn’t include a bunch of Hollywood liberals

Speaking for myself, “making a list, checking it twice. Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice” and this conservative capitalist will decide how to spend her money for the next several years.

Lots of Country Folks will perform—Lots of Great Country and Gospel groups—Why depend on Hollywierd when you have Nashville?
