Donald, hate to break it to you...



In fact, Peter Marx, owner of Saks Jandel, a D.C. area boutique, told PEOPLE that there have been fewer people seeking inaugural gowns.

“There’s never been less demand for inaugural ballgowns in my 38 years,” Marx told PEOPLE.

“Never ever has it been less for the inaugural.”

Is there any photo of him anywhere where he looks like a dignified human being? He always looks like the biggest asshole on the planet.

He's trying to get the orange one to fire off a 4:00 am tweet directed at him and his store. Sales will soon skyrocket

Likely the only purveyor of inaugural wear that will be doing well is Ivanka Trump.
Wearing anything else would be a costly faux pas.

"Organizers have announced that Donald Trump will attend two inaugural balls during his first week in office.
One in Washington, D.C. and then, of course, the real one in Moscow."
