"There is no bad weather, only bad clothing." Vi har de beste klærne for dårlig vær. Minnesotans would do the ceremony outside because we aren't a bunch of warm-weather wimps and we have good clothing. We also say that our bad weather keeps out the riff-raff. (I walk a couple of miles every day no matter how cold it gets, just trying to keep my tired old carcass from deteriorating any faster; I dress like I'm on an expedition to Antarctica and it's no big deal. When I get back I have to cool off.)

Of course Trump will keep his ugly orange ass warm inside while his cult members shiver in the cold, but he'll love it that they're suffering for him.
