After coming under huge pressure from his fans on social media, Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli has decided not to perform at Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony, which will take place one month from today after his victory was rubber-stamped by the Electoral College on Monday.

Some freedom loving patriot with a set of convictions and balls will gladly step up to the plate.

I truly don't get the goals of progs with this. I mean I personally don't care one way or the other if Andrea bocelli is there but it does self inflict the goal of making them look extremely petty which is fantastic

So is the right to refuse service to someone you disagree with good or bad today? I'm not sure which way the wind is blowing for the left. North Carolina bad, Trump perfectly fine.

He probably would have no problem with performing for real POS's like a Saudi or the King of Morocco but a duly elected type like Trump.....no way!!!!

Hell all Trump needs are the military bands and choirs. Save the Hollyweird shite for the Super Bowl.

Well, let's start with the fact that it is a guy.

Let's move on to the fact that those that threatened him are the same ones that think Christians should bake for gay weddings etc.
