The Official Donald Trump Inauguration Drinking Game

Barring a late re-entry into the picture by the Sweet Meteor O'Death – a candidate who among independents was polling even with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton last year – Trump will be sworn in as president of the United States Friday.

At night, when he climbs out of whatever wrench-tightened contraption he uses to keep his gelatinous pink hulk from spitting the seams of his suits, Trump will lay his head in chambers once occupied by the likes of Lincoln, Roosevelt and Kennedy.

I will be live-tweeting during the speech. I haven't decided on a beverage of choice for this one, although the White Russian might be a possibility. The only problem is that I have to appear on TV later in the evening, and all that Kahlua might make me puke on Chris Matthews. Which would be OK, I guess. I mean, he might not like it, but it would be fitting somehow.

Without further ado, here we go. Drink every time:

1. Trump deploys the "pinchy fingers" rhetorical maneuver, holding his hands out to his sides and waving them back and forth with Spaghetti-Oed mini-fingers. (@jasonweiler)

Make it a double if he uses his trademark "high-fives (or high-tens) the invisible ghost in front of him" move. (@PentaTronic)

2. Trump berates or insults a media outlet, or gloats about one that is dying or dead. (@brittanygrogan)

3. Mike Pence holds a fake smile for 30 consecutive seconds. We have someone monitoring this, so I'll be tweeting it out if we have confirmed instances. (@keithchaput)

4. Trump name-checks a celebrity, or references The Apprentice. (@dwfriedheim)
