U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said his inauguration on Monday will be held inside the U.S. Capitol rather than outdoors because of severe cold.
"The weather forecast for Washington, D.C., with the windchill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows. There is an Arctic blast sweeping the Country. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way," Trump said on his Truth Social platform on Friday.
Horseshit. The high on Monday in D.C. will be 22. When they moved it indoors for Reagan, it was 7.
It was 22 when JFK was inauguated and he didn't move it indoors. But he was made of sterner stuff than the Old Orange Bastard.
Well, to be fair, cold weather probably affects his nonexistent bone spurs.

I suspect he's more afraid of an assassination attempt. I think this is the reason for the story that Vance will attend a football game instead, so as not to have both of them in the same area in case of an attack.
I wouldn't be caught dead there, and you probably wouldn't go either. But some of the folks that HAVE to go probably appreciate moving indoors. If they have to listen to him blather on and on, they'd most likely rather be warm.

Someone should tell Trump that William Henry Harrison (#9) didn't move inside when it got cold. He gave his speech without even a coat on.
He should take the Harrison Challenge and do him one better since Harrison's was in March.
But he would still stay inside and tell his supporters he was outside and they would believe him.
I think he's more afraid of the wind. There isn't enough hairspray in the whole damned world to protect his weird-assed coiffure from a good stiff wind.
Poor dear....he'll be deprived of the MASSIVE crowds thronging to see him. In his dreams. Mr Toad. No redeeming social value, not that the current SCOTUS could see it if the that reality bit them in the ass.
I wonder if there is a temperature below which that orange -- whatever -- on his face gets stiff and starts to flake off?
