A growing number of Democratic lawmakers are boycotting President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, particularly after revelations of Russia’s alleged meddling in the 2016 election gave them an excuse to engage in faux outrage in their ongoing efforts to delegitimatize Trump's presidency.

Fixed

[connyankee]

This is a list of the most despicable excuses of public servants in the universe. Yes...the universe.

[lacrew]

[SandRat]

It will be cold day, in you know where, before those Kritters get anything.

[RaginRak]

If this sort of crap happened at Obama’s inauguration these same clowns would have went apeshit

[snarkytart]

Why does the media even report on this anyway? They only make themselves look bad. Maybe not to their dumb constituents but to most Americans. You know, the ones that weren’t picked up in all the election polls.

[Williams]

[katana]

But we won’t miss twice (wink!)

[dp0622]

Once he won, I couldn’t give a #### about anything the msm or dems or anybody else said.

He’s the man for 1400 plus days. That’s what counts.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Just draining the swamp at the inauguration.Damn good start.

[RightGeek]

So what's the bad news?

[griswold3]

This is the USA.
They are free to protest peacefully. And they are also free to accept the consequences.
