Trump REALLY doesn't like the ceremonial duties of being POTUS: WH Easter Egg Roll in trouble

[DetlefK]

First pitch? Skipped it.

Passover seder? Skipped it.

Easter Egg Roll? Doesn't look good.

The delayed process of such a magnanimous event, means the outcome is likely to be smaller in scale. “The evidence points to a quickly thrown-together affair that people close to the planning said would probably draw about 20,000 people — substantially smaller than last year’s Easter Egg Roll, which drew 37,000 — and be staffed by 200 volunteers, one-fifth of the usual number,” writes The New York Times.

The White House has also ordered half the amount of Easter eggs as President Barack Obama’s White House did in 2016 “due to the limited manufacturing window for this year’s Easter Egg Roll,” White House official retailer Lara Kline told the Times.

Much of the discrepancy in this years slow planning seems to fall on the absence of the First Lady in Washington. Mrs. Trump, who lives in New York, has not enacted a full-staff for the East Wing, and such members have typically been responsible for leading the Easter festivities.

1. Trump knows he won't draw the egg roll crowd the Obamas did!

14. Au contraire

Sean Spicer will be here soon to tell us all that it was the Biggest. Crowd. Ever. for the Easter Egg Roll. And those chickenshit reporters in the Press Room will just sit there writing it down.

3. It is important to understand Donald Trump despises

the type of people who would come to such an event.

Though he hasnt a clue about government, business or anything else, he does think he is above others regardless of who they are.

I wanna know who works for him who makes sure he is only a complete failure 60% of the time in business instead of 100% of the time.

Who is that person who goes behind him and fixes everything he does I wonder?

4. I'm ok with it

Personally I think the ceremonies are useless and a waste of money.

However, I would rather him be Easter egg rolling instead of making decisions.

5. Actually,

he's afraid the kids (and their parents) will find the eggs and throw them at him!!

As for the "first pitch" thing - would he dare show his face in a crowd that isn't a "controlled" crowd (ie: campaign rally)? He KNOWS he'd be "BOOed" out of the place!!!!

6. I can't imagine anything creepier

than Donald Trump playing with children.

Except maybe Donald Trump in a clown outfit.
That would be creepier.

8. Thanks!

"Except maybe Donald Trump in a clown outfit."

16. I wouldn't want DTnear children. Maybe it's his bragging...walking in on 15 year old nude girls,

or rape allegations by a 13 year old, or his soft porn interview and photos, or he always marries 30ish year olds, or his bragging about pussy grabbing.

10. He's giving up a great photo op if he had all this grandkids participating.

Maybe he doesn't want everyone to think he's old enough to have grandchildren.

11. He is not thinking right.

He can use cheap plastic eggs and stuff a paper inside saying "vote for Trump." Another campaign trick.

12. good idea, keeping him away from children

ideally we'd be able to keep him away from policy decisions as well, but that ship has sailed

13. no biggee. get endorsement of religion off the white house agenda. nt

15. It'll be fun. Maybe Don can find a little kid willing to read him a story.

17. Because how do those things help Russia....

Fucking traitors.
