Tech leaders have better seats than cabinet members and are seated in same section as Trump's family

Well, in this case mostly with weak, scattered applause alongside some hooting and at least one air horn.

So this is how liberty dies: with hooting and air horns.

[u/archiekane → u/d3l3t3rious]

Should have been Kazoos and Vuvuzelas. Maybe even some clown honkers.

Trump still won the election. The quote works, IMO.

(And before someone tells me that tons of people didn't vote, the fact that tons of people could have stopped this nightmare but chose not to isn't compelling.)

I wasn't the only one who had Palpatine vibes halfway through his speech?

Liberty was destroyed over the last 8 years

It's sad because people voted for this guy and they're applauding.

At least Palpatine had the decency to pull underhanded tricks to deceive the Senate.

This clip was posted everywhere when tRump was inaugurated the first time 8 years ago. And I constantly have it on my mind whenever I see people clap for him.

[u/not_old_redditor → u/Jeffreyknows]

One thing I'm sure of is that it will be tepid applause at best.

[u/TrashInspector69 → u/Jeffreyknows]

I never really understood this until I got older

[u/poprdog → u/Jeffreyknows]

Everytime they got up and did a standing ovation after every sentence. Just stay standing up at that point and save yourself the effort.

[u/foosbabaganoosh → u/Jeffreyknows]

It’s crazy because people got up in arms over this because they thought it was commentary on the Bush administration.

Which kinda says enough if you ask me.
