Climate Change moves Trump's Inauguration

[89th]

I mean, it’ll be cold but it’ll be the same temp that JFK dealt with for his (outdoor) inauguration and speech. I’m sure Trump was given the option and the he thought that yes it’ll be warmer but I guarantee he was happy not to have his small…crowds in the headlines again.

Let's ask Grok:

John F. Kennedy's inauguration took place on January 20, 1961. On that day in Washington, D.C., the temperature was relatively cold, with a high of 22°F (-5.6°C) and a low of 10°F (-12.2°C). At noon, during the swearing-in ceremony, the temperature was around 20°F (-6.7°C).

On January 21, 1985, during Ronald Reagan's second inauguration, the temperature in Washington, D.C. was extremely cold. At noon, the temperature was reported to be just 7°F (-14°C), with wind chills reaching as low as -25°F (-32°C). This made it the coldest inauguration on record, leading to the ceremony being moved indoors to the Capitol Rotunda.

The weather forecast for Washington, D.C., on Monday, January 20, 2025, indicates very cold conditions. Here are the specifics:

Temperature: Highs are expected to be in the mid to upper 20s°F, with a high near 24°F. Lows will be in the single digits to low teens, around 10°F to 11°F.
Wind: Winds are expected to be significant, with gusts up to 20-30 mph, leading to wind chills that could feel like single digits or even lower.
Precipitation: No additional snow is expected on Monday, but there might be some snow on the ground from a storm the previous day, Sunday.
Sky Conditions: The day is expected to be mostly sunny to sunny, despite the cold.

This forecast suggests a bitterly cold but mostly dry day for the inauguration, with the main concern being the wind chill making it feel much colder than the actual air temperature.

It’ll feel like -33 here next week. Kids won’t go out for recess if it’s below -10.

Winds during JFK also were 20-25mph. Made it feel like 8 degrees. But he didn’t worry about crowd size.

He didn't have a fragile ego.

On the night of his inauguration in 2016, his press secretary, Sean Spicer, gave an impromptu press conference disputing the attendance at his inauguration.

That didn't happen in a vacuum.

What about in a Dyson Sphere?

Not talking about 2016. Trump likes big crowds, it feeds his ego. But...Because of inclimate weather, the ceremony needs to be inside. I don't think you get bragging rights for that, but it's the prudent thing to do

To the farm comment the interviewer should have said ‘But you guys are men. Trump’s a walking, talking hymen’.

In theory, no. In reality who know if there even is such a sphere in the universe. There is however a Dyson vacuum. I have one in the hall closet.

[NobodySock]

Sure , why not? They shit all over the place 4 years ago. Time for another reshitting.

[Jolly]

Y'all sure have your panties in a wad.

[jon-nyc]

Soooooo much bigger than TFM’s crowd 8 years later.

[Copper]

Move the Inauguration to July 4.
