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 and his rebuke of civil rights icon John Lewis on Saturday.

Some members of Congress have said they will be protesting in DC and in their districts instead.

That’s awesome! Now we all know who to vote AGAINST the next time they’re on deck!

Thanks, LibTards! You REALLY should work on your Poker Faces, though...

I would hope that the electorate sees that the Demo party has become the party of bad behavior.

Glad to see them out of power. It is infantile to boycott the Inaugeral and I have become weary of their violent and non-violent hissy fits.

I am looking forward to the ceremonies. Should be fun.

They can call it a “growing number” all they want; it’s still just a whiny handful.
16 whiners doth not a movement make.

And now Jennifer Holliday just backed out of her agreement to perform at the inauguration. Says she has to stand with lgbtq community.
Boycott Jennifer Holliday. (If you haven’t already ).

They had best hope they never get the caricature of a President they have constructed in their own minds. That cartoon character would have them picked up in the night and disappeared.

Let’s see they are boycotting their candidate’s victorious opponent because they are:

Hetrophobic, racist (anti-Caucasian), sexist (anti-male), sore losers, small minded, self-centered politicians, and closet communists.

My give-a crap meter is registering 0.0000. And it’s accurate to four places. Seriously, I no longer am outraged reading about the Dem antics described on this board; now, I find it somewhat entertaining.

If we can weather this for a few months, the Dems will just stroke out and it will be fairly smooth sailing from there.

John Lewis is a sad example of the message of Martin Luther King, Jr. and has ridden to fame on the back of MLK, Jr.

“They are going to learn very soon that it ain’t the same ol’ Washington they are used to...”

Wouldn’t it be AWESOME to have President Elect (LOVE THAT!) Trump run DC like he would a Business?

Can you see these ‘Rats REPORTING to him with their, ‘quarterly earnings reports’ on where they SAVED American tax dollars each quarter?

OMG! OMG! Best. Election. Ever. EVER!

That is just so much filth that will not have to be cleaned up.
I am sorry that I am old I would dearly love to be around when the Bloodshed comes.
