89-Year-Old Inauguration Announcer Wanted to Kill Himself After Trump Dropped Him and Replaced Him With a Supporter

Drumpf and all his highly unqualified friends he hired are at it again. While working to fire the whole government and replace them with cronies is going pretty smoothly overall, it’s even hitting non-government people.

Drumpf fired 89-year-old Charles Brotman, who has announced every presidential inauguration since President Eisenhower. Eleven presidents and sixty years under his belt and Drumpf fired him via email to replace him just weeks after his wife died.

The dismissal was so shocking and abrupt that it made Brotman think he “was going to commit suicide.”

Brotman told CNN:

“I looked at at my email, then I got the shock of my life. I felt like Muhammad Ali had hit me in the stomach.”

Surprisingly Brotman won’t be replaced with one of Drumpf’s many Eastern European mail order brides, but an actual announcer: Drumpf supporter Steve Ray.

Ironically, Drumpf may have fired the only person that wanted to take part in his inauguration. He could barely find a singer and the Rockettes don’t want to dance at it.
