Rockette says no minorities have signed up to perform at Trump's inauguration and claims dancing for president will cause women 'trauma'

    Radio City Rockettes will perform at Trump's inauguration on a voluntary basis
    An anonymous dancer spoke out - saying dancers felt obligated to perform or lose their position
    Said she was incensed by Trump's Access Hollwood sexual assault boast and dancing for the president could cause some women trauma
    Suggested the planned performance was hurting the company's bottom line
    Another one of the group's dancers took to Instagram to voice her disapproval of Trump
    Trump's inaugural committee has had difficulty signing big acts; the Rockettes are one of only three groups it's locked down

The dancer, whose spoke to Marie Claire anonymously, said no women of color have volunteered to perform to her knowledge, and alleged that the planned performance was hurting the company's bottom line.

As I've yet to see one inauguration on tv or in person EVER!!!! the depth of my lack of care about who shows up to entertain for the president is deeper than the Marianas Trench.

Rockettes.  Glorified baton twirlers in g-strings and feathers.

The Rockettes.

They were the ones who were whites only until around 1990.

Oh, for God's sake just shut up.

I hope these people are consistent the next time somebody screams, "Bake me a cake, bigot."  But something tells me forcing that will be just fine.
