Donald Trump has been officially inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States. During the presidential campaign Trump bragged about how popular he is with the American electorate, but when the rubber met the road at Trump’s inaugural parade the crowd size told an entirely different story.
The presidential parade typically lasts for four hours, but Trump had his cut down to just 90 minutes — and for good reason. The longer Trump was forced to stay out in the nearly empty streets the more humiliation he would have been forced to endure.
