What is this sentence doing here?

Along with being the oldest and wealthiest person to assume the presidency, he is the first without prior military or governmental service experience. This sentence is in the lede. It is copied from Donald Trump, where it is relevant and informative. But what does this have to do with his inauguration? I would propose removing it as irrelevant to his inauguration. --MelanieN (talk) 03:09, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

Since no-one has objected I am going to remove it. --MelanieN (talk) 03:03, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Duplicate Federal Investigation sections

There are two sections of the page that talk about the Federal Investigation. The first is "2.2.2 Federal investigation into spending and funding" and another Federal Investigations section near the bottom of the article. Can we merge the information into one section where appropriate? Sk5893 (talk) 22:06, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Good idea. I've done it. (The material was actually in three places.) -- MelanieN (talk) 22:28, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Inaugural attendance

I just read both the cited sources for the inaugural attendance and they state 300k to 600k so I fixed the lead - where did the 150k figure come from?? Atsme Talk 📧 13:39, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Looks like it was added by an IP awhile back.[1] PackMecEng (talk) 14:04, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Edited Photos Allegation

New to wiki so sorry for any mistakes, was feeling too intimidated to jump into editing. Cited sources for claim that "a government photographer admitted that he, at Trump's request,[167] edited pictures of the inauguration" indicate that no such request was explicitly made on anyone's behalf, but rather that the photographer "believed the cropping was what the official 'had wanted him to do'". Seems misleading, not sure how to fix though. Any help/advice appreciated. Also worth noting this paragraph is duplicative of the last few sentences of the previous section.

Election time. Time to give Donald Trump a fair go

I put it to you, the editors of Wikipedia, that there are far too many dubious claims littering Wikipedia articles that deal with the current President Of The United States, Mr Donald Trump. I am alleging that there is an imbalance, with far too much weight being put on the negative "facts" about the President, and far too few positives. I put it to you that the "excellent sources" of information used to back up these claims, which pass the sanity tests of Wikipedia's fine editing teams, are polluted with very vicious and nasty statements, like the way he treats the First Lady, as well as the more frivolous claims, like crowd numbers, and who allegedly sponsored his inauguration. These tend to wander into wild conspiracy theories dreamt up by the Left (the Democrats and their supporters), who spend their time dissing their political opponents, the Republicans.

I call on the shit to be cleaned up, and the negatives to be more fairly balanced with the positives for a man who, in my opinion, is a clever man doing a good job and the media refuses to acknowledge it. 121.45.59.55 (talk) 16:03, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

Please name one dubious claim that you would like to see changed. Your opinion of who Trump is is irrelevant here. Present reliable sources. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:06, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

Crowd Size

I know that estimating the size of large crowds is an inexact science, but the 300,000-600,000 figure cited here implies that Trump not only failed to shatter all previous inaugural attendance records, he only managed to get a fraction (possibly less than half) of the previous record.
