President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural committee has raised a record $90 million to cover the steep costs of next weekend's festivities, the Associated Press reported.
That far outpaces President Obama’s $55 million in 2009 and $43 million in 2013, the AP reported.

Money is obviously racist.

You're mad because Mississippi has a real entertainer in the inaugural lineup?
And a headliner, at that.

Are you a native Tennessean? If so, how does someone who lives in trump's third strongest state (only ND and WV voted more for him) get such liberal views?

We all have that one person in the family that is just a little off.

Yea because we should measure a president by their popularity among singers and actors. 
y'all are just horrid individuals.

Obama 35.45% 238,269
2008
Mccain 55.58% 397,466
Obama 42.49% 303,857

Why does the inauguration have to have these people? It is a transfer of executive power; not a Hollyweird sideshow. All they need is a combined military band.

Did you see Denzel Washington talking about this? I don't know where the guy is politically but I liked that he said [i've been a postman, a trash man and an actor. Actors aren't more in touch with the pulse of America. They know shite. And their job is cake and they should be grateful and stfu] or something like that. I liked it. I like a talented guy who's humble and knows he's blessed.

I just want him to hire some shitty cover band to come in and play every single theme song from every one of Meryl Streep's movies... over and over.
Maybe throw in a few Bruce Springsteen songs in between sets.
And please, President Trump, Please hire a rosie O'Donnell impersonator to come in and eat a stack of 200 gorditas from Taco Bell on stage while Lynard Skynard plays 'That Smell'. Hell, I bet for $2,000, you could probably get rosie herself do it.

Absolutely this^
I wish they would have a limited stagecraft - possibly with high school talent in the form of choirs and bands. Just pay for their travel expenses and make a donation to their library.
Screw these elite 'entertainers' = I hate when one of them butchers up the National Anthem putting their 'style' on to it. Screw your 'style' - it ain't pretty.
