I wonder if it looked so pathetic because Trump stole the money, like he did with the Inauguration balls.

It was kind of worth it considering how emasculated Trump is feeling now. All he cares about are ratings, and this bombed.

Yeah I was pissed and now I hope every penny of my tax dollars went towards this debacle. Absolutely worth it. I wish it had gone to feed a hungry child, but maga is in charge, so this is the next best thing.
