In other words, nobody wants to march in the parade. This is the first time in history that zero DC bands have applied to march.
Except for the 46% plurality, and the fact that no DC high school marching bands have applied to participate in the inauguration, none of the rest of this is true. You simply do not have those facts and are just giving what you surmise.

As far as DC high school bands, Washington DC is one of the most liberal cities in the country. This is like saying no bands from San Francisco or Provincetown, Massachusetts have applied to march. Ridiculous!

None of the ultra liberal Hollywood elite are going to appear either. Guess what? NO ONE CARES! This small percentage of people have been telling us how to think and how to vote for too long and too many people have finally stood up and said enough.

And of course, the percentage of the popular vote is meaningless. But I guess the liberals and democrats have to keep bringing it up since it's the only thing they "won". In other words, they won a contest that wasn't being run.

If it were a popular vote election, the campaigns would be run very differently. Trump knew what he had to do to win and Hillary evidently couldn't figure it out. I believe that if it were an election based on popular vote, he would have figured out how to win that as well. Because that's what he does, He figures out how to win.

Keep on ignoring the fact that Americans voted for republicans in a huge way at every level of government if it makes you feel better. But the fact is that Republicans, including Donald Trump have a very clear mandate.
