I'm watching, though I don't really have any strong feelings on what's happened so far aside from to say that Roy Blunt's line about inaugurations being miraculous and commonplace was kinda cool rhetoric.
Assuming the Republicans like him and Pence who are there are removing themselves from the Trumpian poison and back to pretending they've always held democratic and bipartisan ideals. |

Great to watch. Weird as it is I feel empowered. Such a difference from the last one.

And the Trump presidency is now officially over.
Here's hoping for some more boring news for the next four years. |

He’s definitely REACHING in this speech (“we’ve never failed”) but it’s reassuring to hear a boring presidential speech again.

Have never ever seen a President sworn in earlier than noon. Was 11.48 this time. Wonder why that was. Thought his term began at noon.

QUOTE(Houdini @ Jan 20 2021, 01:54 PM) Donald Trump has just finished chatting his usual BS and still refuses to verbally acknowledge Joe Biden as the next president. To be fair he did say he wished the next administration the best which was better than I was expecting from him. |

Gosh, it feels good to have a decent, experienced human being here again showing genuine compassion for the country. Not quite the same I felt with Obama's speech, but I will never take that for granted again!

Whatever trump's letter says, I doubt it will be anywhere near as dignified as the last one from a defeated president.
QUOTE Dear Bill,
When I walked into this office just now I felt the same sense of wonder and respect that I felt four years ago. I know you will feel that, too. I wish you great happiness here. I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described. There will be very tough times, made even more difficult by criticism you may not think is fair. I’m not a very good one to give advice; but just don't let the critics discourage you or push you off course. You will be our President when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well. Your success now is our country’s success. I am rooting hard for you. Good luck— George |
