The whiny little bitch is afraid of the cold.
Someone’s afraid of no one coming to his party
can’t have those sad comparison shots of his crowds if there isn’t one this time.

Both are quite plausible explanations but I’d guess he’s more terrified of a small crowd than a shooter since given the security precautions, the first is far more likely than the second.

Will Luigi be there?
Yup. Can’t compare pictures when the venue is different.
The people who show up probably hate him so he wussed out
Shame, would have been the perfect day for another attempt
I live in Louisana and personally know at least 5 people who have traveled to DC specifically for the inauguration. He might not have enough people to sate his appetite but there’s going to be quite a few people there.
Probably an excuse for security reasons. If I were them I’d be worried about Luigis.
Hopefully everyday for the rest of their lives.
May that period be brief.
Dang, when I heard the weather report I was hoping for pneumonia.
Hoping for another Wm. Henry Harrison?
When Harrison came to Washington, he wanted to show that he was still the steadfast hero of Tippecanoe… He took the oath of office on Thursday, March 4, 1841, a cold and wet day.[104] He braved the chilly weather and chose not to wear an overcoat or a hat, rode on horseback to the grand ceremony, and then delivered the longest inaugural address in American history
In the evening of Saturday, April 3, Harrison developed severe diarrhea and became delirious, and at 8:30 p.m. he uttered his last words…
The prevailing theory at the time was that his illness had been caused by the bad weather at his inauguration three weeks earlier.
Things one learns in high school.
If trump got delirium and had uncontrollable diarrhea how would we tell the difference?
Does cold weather - short term exposure like this, anyway - actually cause one to get sick?
Serious question.
Not a doctor, but I’m interested in the subject. I think the current consensus is “yes and no.”
200 years ago, people may have answered yes. Thirty years ago it was popular to discount the idea entirely because germs are what make you sick. Can’t deny that.
Lately I’ve been hearing some acknowledgement that a stress to your body may make you more susceptible or less able to fight off an infection. The wiki article includes a recent study that pointed to poor sewage treatment near the White House in Harrison’s day. For whatever reason WHH wasn’t able to fight that off but the rest of the residents seemingly were.
People have been making the connection of “he stood outside for hours in the snow and drizzle, then caught the dropsy and died” for centuries. I don’t think they lacked for sense or couldn’t make the obvious connection between exposure and sickness. I do think they lacked for microscopes.
Dont worry, they’ll get covid
He’s afraid next time that person won’t miss.
He can’t handle cold temperatures because he’s a frail old man.
With frail old ideas
This year, the temperature on Inauguration Day at noon — when the president-elect swears in — is expected to be in the low 20s, which is around 20 degrees below normal — likely the coldest since Reagan’s second inauguration.
Winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph are likely Monday. These winds will make conditions feel frigid. Wind chills are likely to hover around 10 degrees during the daylight hours and could drop into the single digits after sundown.
A mix of rain and snow is possible Sunday ahead of the main event, but Monday so far looks to be cold and windy, but dry.
It gets colder than that on NYE in Times Square all the time. But then I guess some snowflakes are afraid of snowflakes.
I don’t know on that one man.
While I am a yooper, I do know that good cold weather gear can be expensive.
While you just missed it, Eddie Bauer has some decent stuff for 50% off for Black Friday and right after Christmas.
I sound like a shill, but I just moved from cali to Chicago, and it let me stock up on several decent coats and I also bought some higher end stuff from other places
It doesn’t in the actual square though as all the lights and people make it warmer.
Hell has frozen over.
Obama’s inauguration had the coldest conditions since Reagan’s and he still had a massive crowd. Trump is a pathetic little coward who’s scared to death of a small crowd size and everyone making fun of him by doing that gesture Obama made in his convention speech.
What gesture was that?
Here’s a clip of it.
He’s really old and in bad shape. He probably can’t handle a temperature of 12f for very long.
The MAGA train can march, ride or crowd together in the hot weather but can’t stand a bit of cold?
These are the kind of people that would shoot rounds at the sky to try to get it to warm up
Dammit I wanted him to take the William Henry Harrison challenge.
He’s old. He probably can’t handle 12F for very long without looking and sounding really bad. Fascism can’t work if people see the leader as a doddering old man
Well that’s the best news for America I’ve heard in a long time.
According to Accuweather it’s going to be -5°C on Monday in Washington DC
Which isn’t even that cold LMAO
I get it, you’re tougher than everyone here who thinks standing around in cloudy 20 degree weather for hours is unpleasant.
i mean I’ve lived in the Midwest since the 90s and i would say anything under 20°F is pretty unpleasant lol
20⁰F is -7⁰C
Edit: it was even colder when Reagan was inaugurated in 85, -32⁰C wind-chill. Two of the worst presidents in history forced to hold the inauguration in private.
snowflake
And not a single peep about climate change.
Oh just wait. “It’s so cold out, we had to go inside! Climate change is a hoax!”
Someone should tell him how cold it is in Greenland.
That will stop getting shot.
Some Presidents got shot and still stayed for their speech. What a loser.
Bull moose.
Are we sure? Did anyone search Vance’s pockets?
Yeah, and the Capitol subway probably has loads of security. Can’t have a new Guy Fawkes Day in January.
Oh he’s not afraid of the cold
I’m imagining a frozen soiled diaper
Afraid of his supporters too, I reckon. 🤯
Seriously, diaper boy’s loser squad are such psychos that it’s still them with the assassination attempts, even when it’s their guy.
I wish him lots of quality time with his friends.
