Cold My Left Foot... Far More Likely: Ticket Sales were Weak

Hotel bookings were lower than expected, Trump was told he'd have a moderate but not yuuuge crowd, and this is his usual face-saving deflection.

That's what I'm going with until Stephen Miller personally goes on CNN and demonstrates otherwise with indisputable evidence.

Florida Man probably realized how cold it was going to get and didn't want to mess up the dead ferret on his head.

1. Crowd size will be far smaller and there will be fact checking photos

2. We know he won’t go to a cemetery with our fallen soldiers if it threatens to rain on his hair. Certainly rain, snow, and wind won’t be tolerated.

3. None of the money will be returned which will make him gleeful since he can’t stand the stupid drooling cultists and would be embarrassed by an army of sloppy fat proud boys filling up the spots in front of the podium.

It’s a win/win for him. And if they squawk, so what? It was time to dump them anyway, and now he has real billionaires to back his dicktater bullshit stories instead of nickle and dime tennis shoe and bible sales.
