I’m split. On one hand, thunderstorms in DC in the summer are so obvious and predictable that anyone doing any kind of organizing for an outdoor event would have considered them months in advance and would have contingencies. So “cancelled due to thunderstorms” is obviously a cover for “we’re getting too much pushbacka and don’t want to embarrass ourselves.”
Otoh, not realizing that there is a thunderstorm pretty much every single day in DC in the summer is exactly the level of competence I expect from the Trump admin.
I don’t know. He refused to go to D-Day 50th anniversary memorial ceremony because it was raining and he didn’t want to get wet. I guess it wasn’t his ego on the line, then, and I’m sure the Secret Service is insisting on a covered viewing area, anyway, after the near-miss in Buttler, PA.
“Cancelled” would be great! The ultimate Fuck You from whatever God(s) exist.
But, does anyone truly believe Little Donnie Mangolini will let it go that easily??? Something he’s yearned for since Season 1??
Methinks “rescheduled” is a more likely outcome. 🤷♂️

Don’t even think that. He’d expose people to lightning before cancelling

Also held inauguration indoors due to bad weather.
The MAGA tears rained harder than the actual rain, lol
If they told him D-Day stood for Donald-Day, he’d have been there
Especially after the whole TACO thing, his ego has got to be running overdrive right now
Trump’s flunkies had 4 years to write Project 2025, so of course that shit has been implemented at frightening precision.
But they’re incredibly bad at doing anything on short notice. Expect Four Seasons level brainfarts if they need to improvise a solution yet again.
