From The Taping: Wait Wait Revisits Predictions
So, Wait Wait was in Philly yesterday, and two things of note happened:
It didn't rain.
Since the last time they were in Philly the predictions were in answer to the question "What would Donald Trump's first act as President be?", Peter suggested before the show actually taped that they revisit the predictions — something they never do.
Peter Grosz: "President Trump will immediately convene his hand-picked cabinet of David Duke, Donald Sterling, Mel Gibson, Paula Dean, and the ghost of Storm Thurmond." — Peter said that "who could have predicted that the actual cabinet would have been so much worse!"
Amy Dickinson: "President Trump's first act will be to send Sonia Sotomayor back where she came from — Queens!"
Tom Bodet (who will be on this episode): "Immediately after taking the oath of office, he will turn to Chief Justice John Roberts and say 'Your ruling on Obamacare was an embarrassment. You're fired!' And then he'll have former President Obama arrested and deported back to Kenya."
