Twitter Users Mock QAnon As Biggest Trump Prophecy Yet Falls Apart
Right-wing conspiracy theorists were disappointed on Thursday when a QAnon cult prophecy about former President Donald Trump returning to power failed to occur.
Members of the group believed Trump would take office again on March 4, which was the traditional Inauguration Day date until 1933. In response, security was increased around the U.S. Capitol and the House wrapped up business on Wednesday amid concerns over the potential for new violence in the area.
Instead, nothing happened. No inauguration. No crowds. And no Trump. This inspired #TrumpInauguration and similar hashtags to trend in mocking “celebration” of the non-event:
Sure looks like the #TrumpInauguration isn’t happening.
Also, a plane struck the Pentagon on 9/11; there is no secret cabal of satan worshipping pedophiles running America; and the election was not stolen. https://t.co/iuB0dzWxyY— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) March 5, 2021
Just got back from the QAnon inauguration of Donald Trump. Lovely event. The Martians especially enjoyed it.

Guys, I’m at the DuPont Circle Pinkberry for the #TrumpInauguration. I’m here with four Proud Boys, their moms and Scott Baio. Did we get the address wrong? Help me out, this Minuteman costume is super-itchy.

Is it my imagination or is today's Trump Inauguration even smaller than his first one?
