Dems plan rival concert to Trump inauguration in Miami, and claim....
Daily Mail UK ^ | 5 hours ago

A Democratic concert promoter is putting together an inauguration day show in Miami to directly compete with President-elect Donald Trump's special day.

Politico Playbook is reporting that Mark Ross, the son of the late Time Warner CEO Steve Ross, is putting together a 'We the People' concert, which will take place on January 20, 2017.

'The talent is banging on our doors to do this,' a source told Playbook.

Much like Trump's inaugural, where only a handful of acts have been announced, there are few details about who might show up to this competing show.

Currently, Ross is working on getting funding for the large-scale show, a source told Politico.

However, plenty of pop stars and Hollywood talent were supportive of Democrat Hillary Clinton's bid for the White House, which is making it difficult for team Trump to book top-tier inaugural acts.

In the waning days of the Clinton campaign, the former secretary of state, or other top members of her team, campaigned alongside performers including Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga, Dave Matthews, Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and her husband Jay Z, Stevie Wonder, Steve Aoki, The National and Katy Perry.

Interesting comments. . .mostly from the U.S. I guess we need to go somewhere to get news of our country. Loved most of the European comments.

Hope they break out the Secret Weapon Hillary, she got $250,000 to (whatever) Thosuand $ per speech! Look at the Crowds she drew when they were Free!
Bill Clinton... Yeah he is a draw... 10 X $ what Hillary was pulling in.
Over / Under what are the Odds-makers take on either one of these Losers showing up?
They would get a better turn out with Bernie
On the Hollywood side ... who wants to get shown up by the Army-Navy-Marine Corps Band?
I hope just on the side Lt Dan shows up, Charlie Daniels, Uncle Ted, Kid Rock and Hank Williams Jr. even if all they do is LIVE YOUTUBE or Tweets.
I will NEVER forget Lee Greenwood singing “God Bless the USA” on our ship, I watched many a Grown Man cry (in my 28 Uniform years Lee Greenwood holds the record of most emotional response experienced by me over a danged Song! Sheesh!).

Lunatic LIBs provide much entertainment. Their loony protestations and machinations, their ignorant chants, their self-righteous indignation, their hatred, their inability to use logic, their general malaise about life, their dishonesty, their uselessness, their worthlessness to society, their confusion, their multiple mental health “issues” and so forth provide a laugh a day. As long as they are kept from power, authority or responsibility, they are a laugh a minute...albeit a pathetic laugh. It is like going to a freak show at a carnival but not having to pay admission.

This might keep a lot of potential protesters happy sitting home watching the trashy entertainers. Would allow patriotic Americans to enjoy the inauguration in peace.

Let them hold a concert, let it be successful and bring more business & dollars.

Trump has declared that he will make the changes to stimulate the economy

It is not funny anymore.

I agree. It's sickening. They are actually defying the will of voters like you and me.

And, for those prima-donnas who think they are so talented that they would be lowering themselves to perform for Trump, I suggest that Trump get lesser known talents which would make them great. And, let’s not buy the garbage put out by the prima-donnas.

Sounds like a plan. I found myself quite happy & content without our liberal elites, gracing it, in any way. I may be one person, with only a Wife and one child but we don’t feed those people in any way, shape or form.
