Trump is expected to spend Thursday night at Blair House, the presidential guest residence across the street from the White House.

Friday, January 20

Morning - Trump, Pence and their families are expected to attend services at St. John's Episcopal Church, just steps from the White House.

Attendees will include members of Congress, Supreme Court justices, diplomats and the public. Former presidents Jimmy Carter, George W.

I am so enjoying the outrage from the press every time Trump sneezes.

Notice Russia hacking the election has been replaced by Bustgate and Fakenumbersgate.

Trump controls the twits and they sure don’t like it.

Kellyanne was absolutely fab on the Sunday show.

Don’t go!!

[Seattle Conservative]

Oh know. How awful. Will send thoughts and prayers. Thanks for letting us know.

[Windflier]

I was in tears most of the day Friday.

I was in exceptionally high spirits during the inauguration, but I only choked up at one moment - which was when the Marine Corps marched past the reviewing stand.

For some reason, that sight made me tear up.

The design on the front of the gown immediately reminded me of an orchid. I loved it.

[Miss Didi]

I just swooned for the matching gloves!

What happened to HarleyLady’s daughter?

[Seattle Conservative]

For others that want to send prayers to Harley Lady, here’s where she mentions her daughter’s murder. Post #43:

Perfect description, Duchess!!

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thanks for your report. Bet the memories of your time at the Inauguration will be with you forever!

[Windflier]

Great observations, Dolly. If I weren’t typing with one finger on this little tablet, I’d list out a few more.

One minor thing that really surpised me, was that FLOTUS wore such high heels throughout every event. I practically held my breath as she and POTUS descended the Capitol building steps.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Oh no! I am sorry you got that message about the graphics. Does that mean the photos you post are from forbidden sites? Very sorry if true. I have (we have) enjoyed your posts SO MUCH! You are a true treasure for FR and for the nation and the world in fact. Your posts enriched me, us, more than you can know.

I hope you will reconsider going back to lurk mode.

God bless you!

My gosh the video with Kellyanne was amazing! THANKS.

[Windflier]

WORST thing I saw all day was Michelle; even I would have to work hard to look that dowdy!!

I think it's poetic that she went out much the same way she came in. Remember the ghastly black widow dress she wore at Zero's election celebration event?

When the cameras first showed her at Friday's inauguration, I didn't even realize it was her, because she looked so frumpy. I figured she was some no name staffer. How sad is that?

[STARLIT]

A perfect description! Yes!

[DollyCali]

read some negative comments re: her outfit... BUT I think she looked great. She is a tall, slender, attractive women who carries herself confidently. I think she can dress the same way.

Now as we all know this is NOT her norm of dress... she was making a big statement. It was her birthday and she is showing her patriotism on Inaugural day of the man she made a big difference in being elected.

I have noted more "military look" in fashion and I think that is good.

NOW BACK TO MICHELLE ----

once she put the coat on, the ensemble was improved. The dress underneath to me was matronly and boring. A nice scarf OR SOMETHING would have improved it IMO. I was thinking she didn't wear a wig due to fact of fear in the circumstances of weather and hugs, it would be moved or pulled off? This does happen.

I just think she looked dowdy

[Seattle Conservative]

You’re welcome! She is so good - glad she’s on our side :-)

[Spirit of Liberty]

My thought at the time was, she was sending a message: ‘You’re not worth making myself presentable’.

[hoosiermama]

Her gown at the ball was Indiana Blue — same as the state flag It was designed as a ball gown to dance in not as a fashion statement. Knowing the indiana stores it was probably the best she could do. We hoosiers are not into high fashion
