Everything Is Cooked: Pauline Hanson Has Been Invited To Trump’s Presidential Inauguration
Cory Bernardi is probably feeling mighty jealous right about now.
We knew Donald Trump was struggling to get musicians to play at his inauguration, but asking Pauline Hanson to perform is surely a bit desperate?
Okay, so Hanson probably isn’t performing but she has been sent an invitation to attend Trump’s swearing in ceremony on January 20.
Would you believe it? I have been gifted tickets to the Presidential Inauguration Ceremony of @realDonaldTrump – What an honour! #auspol

To be honest, yeah, we can definitely believe it.
But there’s a twist! According to Hanson, she’s “still deciding” whether or not she can attend due to her “duties to the people of Queensland and Australia”.
Because of my duties to the people of Queensland & Australia I'm still deciding if I can attend the inauguration of @realDonaldTrump #auspol

Considering parliament doesn’t resume until February, Hanson is probably referring to the upcoming WA and Queensland state elections, where One Nation is making a serious play for more seats.
So far Hanson is the only Australian politician to indicate that they might be heading to the presidential inauguration. Cory Bernardi is probably feeling mighty jealous right about now.
fuck they're desperate https://t.co/KGk8FDYz4O

Quite a few people are happy for Hanson to head over to Washington D.C., as long as she doesn’t come back.
@PaulineHansonOz @realDonaldTrump congrats Pauline! Just don’t come back!!

If Hanson does decide to attend she’ll be in the company of Hillary and Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and 3 Doors Down (of ‘Kryptonite’ fame).
You thought 2016 was bad? Welcome to the hell on earth that is 2017 — and we’re only sixteen fucking days in.
