SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

First Rockette: I don't know yet if I'm going to lose my job over this, but I am totally not dancing at Trump's stupid inauguration. How about you? Second Rockette: Fuck that noise. I'm staying home. Gene: We're famously greedy, mercenary assholes, and even we turned Trump down. Paul: Ask us again, Donny, so I can show how I was made for slapping you! First Rockette: The inaugural committee spokesjerk says, "It's not a concert, it's not about the celebrities. It's about the people." Second Rockette: The people who overwhelmingly didn't vote for him? Those are some crazy huge sour grapes!

NEW COMIC TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS AND WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

Leave it to this most fucked-up of President-Elects to have the most fucked-up bullshit occurring around his inauguration. First the Rockettes were performing, then some of them didn't want to, then their union (!) said they were obligated to, then their employer said, not only weren't the Rockettes being forced to, so many of them volunteered they didn't have enough room for all of them! Which sounds like the textbook definition of protesting too much. Finally, it seems the Rockettes are free to say no, but no one knows for sure if they can be fired for that or what.

On top of which Shannon Tweed says Kiss totally turned Trump down. Ha.

Addendum: Gene Simmons himself says he wasn't asked. He then blathers somewhat about what a good father Trump is—presumably because he's straightedge like Gene himself—and that Trump is politically incorrect—also like Gene himself, I guess. Asshole knows asshole!
