Allegedly, Trump’s team is having trouble finding acts for his Inauguration. I figure we can come up with a suitable party plan. So, what would you like to see at Trump’s Inauguration? My picks; Jeff (fuhfuh) Dunham (DunHAAM) dressed as Putin with Peanut dressed as Trump and a special announcement that Jose Jalapeno-on-a-stick and Achmed the dead terrorist were not allowed into the country. Green Day performing “American Idiot.” Alec Baldwin has already offered to sing “Highway to Hell.” (While this thread is technically about entertainment, I feel that the opinions probably expressed will end it in the pit.) ---

No problem. Trump is his own act. ---

For some reason I’m picturing the initial attack of the Blue Meanies on Pepperland in the 1968 film **Yellow Submarine**. Just unleash a variety of Apple Bonkers, Snapping-Turtle Turks, Hidden Persuaders, Butterfly Stompers – and, of course, the Dreadful Flying Glove – into the Washington crowd. Entertainment accomplished! ---

…oh, and Pussy Grabbers. They didn’t appear in the movie, but I can totally see Pussy Grabbers as part of the Blue Meanie force. ---

It clearly has to be a circus act, with clown cars and little tiny bicycles ridden by little people singing the Oompa Loompa song. Can’t be any Christian type prayers either, Jesus was a Democrat. Maybe they could get Judas, he was obviously a Republican, well a Capitalist anyway, to offer the prayer. ---

Don’t forget the Vomitorium! And I am referring to the popular misconception that the Vomitorium was what the ancient Romans used to vomited in during feasts to make room for more food. Maybe we can rechristen it as the Projectile Vomitorium, in honor of Trump’s Inauguration. ---

With all the performing celebs, PA speakers and sound equipment, they’re probably going to need an experienced Hollywood sound mixer. ---

Should be easy to pick a designated survivor in case of disaster. The list of Americans qualified to replace Trump as president is not likely to be short. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/help-me-plan-trumps-inauguration/775491.md?page=2)
