To Hat Or Not To Hat

Will Donald Trump wear a hat at his inauguration? His familiar red cap doesn't exactly fit with the formality and solemnity of the occasion, but as we've snarked about before here at Writing.The.World, when Donald goes bareheaded outdoors, he's at risk for a serious hairdo malfunction:

The current weather.com forecast for zip code 20004 (the Capitol) on Friday is 49 degrees, 80% chance of light rain, humidity of 84% and 5 miles-per-hour winds from the southeast. Sounds like it won't be too windy, so I'm guessing it will be Hat: No/Hair Product: Yes. There are perils with that too, of course. One doesn't want to look too stiff:  

The 'do isn't the only thing he has to worry about right now, because he's also expected to give a nice speech. Not to worry, the PEOTUS is on it:

A cynic might wonder why he's holding the pad up like that. Doesn't that make it hard to actually, you know, write? Is it possible that the pad's just a prop, with no actual, you know, writing on it? Probably.
