Tim Miller on Trump’s Inauguration: ‘I Don’t Really Love that Everybody Is Just Participating in This Farce’

EXCERPT:

MILLER: “I don’t know, this whole thing, you were talking about how this is the part that Donald Trump likes, the pomp and the circumstance in the military. I just, I’ve had to watch all this stuff today and I got to say, I don’t really love that everybody’s just participating in this farce. Like, it is a farce. Like, Trump knows that it’s a TV show. Say what you want about Trump, he knows it’s a TV show. He went and gave one speech when he was supposed to play the role of important president. And then he goes to a luncheon an hour later and he’s like, the guys wouldn’t let me talk about the stuff that I really wanted to talk about, which is revenge against crying Adam Kinzinger and blah, blah, blah. I want to take Mark Milley’s photo off the wall. Like, Trump knows that it’s a show. And so, I don’t really know why everybody is playing along with his TV show. That’s kind of where I do find myself pretty aligned with Karen Pence today.”
