Braving the cold, bitter weather (and even more bitter political climate), Drag Race star Courtney Act took to the street's of the nation's capitol last Friday to cover an event many people in the country have been dreading since the results of last year's presidential election: Donald Trump's (not-so-well-attended) inauguration.
While it seems like the last place a fabulous, progressive drag queen would ever want to be, Courtney (who was reporting for Junkee as their foreign correspondent) did at least get to ask a bunch of Trump supporters questions about why they were there and why he was their candidate of choice.
Their responses were...interesting, to say the least.
"Donald Trump is the president of the United States of America now," Courtney told viewers towards the end of the video, looking less than amused. "That is a real thing, people." Luckily for her, she was able to attend the now legendary Women's March the following day.
Watch Courtney Act take on Trump's inauguration in the video below.
