“White House officials and allies are wringing their hands over the risk of the hastily arranged event morphing into Trump’s Inauguration 2.0, in which the size of the crowd and the ensuing media coverage do not meet the president’s own outsized expectations for the event,” Politico reports.
Maggie Haberman: “The big question for the fireworks display that is concerning folks around POTUS, per multiple administration officials — will the crowds actually show up, or will this be inauguration redux?”
Jon Lemire: “A real concern, considering late notice/little publicity for the event, and that locals in deeply blue DC may not show up.”
