People here are ridiculous. Trump, for once, makes a good decision and people act like idiots over it.
Just because in some areas it may be below zero quite often and people who live there are used to it, doesn't mean it's a good idea to have an event with thousands of people outside who are not used to the cold.

Hell, Danny Quayle was more of a Jack Kennedy than the Convict, and the Senator was no Jack Kennedy.

Of course JFK way younger. He also lived in Boston, a usually colder climate than NYC, let alone DC.More used to it.
