Democrats Planning Alternate 'We The People' Mega-Concert For Inauguration Day
Town Hall ^ | Dec 23, 2016 11:00 | Christine Rousselle

While there are few actually confirmed details as of now, there's apparently a massive, star-studded "We The People" concert being planned for Miami on the day of Donald Trump's inauguration. The idea is to counter Trump's inauguration and garner higher television ratings than the swearing-in. Normally, the presidential inaugurals carry several a-list acts, but Trump has had issues booking artists to perform. So far, the only confirmed acts are Jackie Evancho (singing the National Anthem), the Rockettes, and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

Rumored artists include Beyoncé, Katy Perry, Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Elton John.

[...]To add insult to injury, concert promoter Mark Ross is reportedly "in the process of putting together a large-scale concert called 'We the People' to directly complete with Donald Trump's inauguration," Politico reports. Ross doesn't have any performers announced yet, although a person familiar with the planning leaked that "the talent is banging on our doors to do this." Then again, the communications director for the Presidential Inaugural Committee, Boris Epshteyn, also bragged that "first class entertainers are eager to participate in the inaugural events," and we all know how that's going. While artists and concert promoters are free to do whatever they'd like, this still strikes me as being rather petty. Donald Trump won the election and he was elected president of the United States. He will continue to be president of the United States even if nobody watches him be sworn in because they're too distracted by the likes of Madonna and Lady Gaga. A mega-concert cannot change the fact that he won more Electoral College votes than Hillary Clinton did.

... and I hope everyone who voted for Trump vows NEVER to support any of those “artists” again.

I love these clowns — who helped Hillary lose — juxtaposed against the choirs and patriotic music Trump will have. Good vs. evil on display for all to see. Reminds me of 1968.

The Lying Left cares about “We the People” about as much as Hitler, Stalin, and Mao.

The Lying Left are snakes. Don’t believe ONE WORD they say.

Isn’t Trump’s inability to gain A Listers the point of the election?

Trump should announce HE is going to celebrate by going from the swearing in to the Oval Office, where he will revoke Executive Orders for 4 hours - just for fun!

The Lying Left cares about “We the People” as much as Hitler, Stalin, and Mao did. To the Lying Left and Co., “We the People” are either their “useful idiots” or targeted for extermination or the Gulag.

Sounds like the Deems are trying to recreate Obama’s first inauguration.

What a bunch of classless children. They whine about America being divided, yet they are the ones doing the dividing.
