Alejandra Whitney-Smith has plans for president-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next week: spend a week in a cabin without technology.
“It [inauguration weekend] coincides with my birthday weekend, which I usually do spend in DC, but when the election happened, I told myself, ‘Oh, no, I can’t be here,’” said Whitney-Smith, whose mother was working at the Library of Congress during the January 6 attack on the US Capitol in 2021. “I just remember that feeling of fear for her and then also just concern for me being in the city. I just knew for me – I didn’t want to be around that sort of hostile negative energy.”
The DC resident said she will hunker down in a cabin with four friends during inauguration weekend and do some vision boarding, reflection and reconnection. As for the re-election of Trump, she says it, “represents the ugly side of America that people don’t want to acknowledge”.
Genuinely, of all the inaugurations to be concerned about a car bomb or other attack - this is the most likely.
US intelligence services are good enough that they’ll intercept a lot of the less careful people weeks before an incident but in this inauguration you’ve got a deeply divisive president who has long been above justice with a laundry list of crimes he’s never faced proper penalties for…
Along with pretty much every billionaire you’ve ever hated in attendance.
The chances of a less discriminate Luigi copycat are extremely high.
Also doubt. Americans are pussies. And, anyone planning something would realize that’s a terrible time and place to do anything.
This dish is served cold, not hot.
