That's exactly what I expected from him. I am happy to see it.

This is one of the biggest events that I feel the pandemic has cheated. It would have been so awesome to have Dump see what a real filled-to-capacity inauguration was like. Previous ones excluded, of course.

i know why the size is smaller and i commend them for it. but is it horrible that i immediately thought about trump bragging about the size of his inauguration and comparing it to Biden's? this is just proof that trump's presidency wills scar me for life.

It has scarred me in so many, many ways. When I think how upset I was that 43 was president, I laugh at my naive self. |

That was one of my first thoughts too. Along with relief that Biden is doing the right thing, which we knew he would. ❤️❤️❤️ |

I’m looking forward to the inauguration. But I’m also relieved it’s going to be smaller as I worry for their lives. Terrorist groups like the Proud Boys, the Michigan Militia and just the hatred of so many that Trump is rousing to violence make me very nervous.

I'm very thankful to hear that! I hope they can figure out way to keep the few guests, the reporters, and TV camera crews safe. I'll enjoy it from home!

Yeah, none of us will be surprised if he does that. I will be surprised if he doesn’t! He’s such a child. |

This is the first inauguration that I would have been able to attend (I live in the Metro DC area), but I will watch from home in the name of safety. |

Pandemic. Duh.
This isn’t difficult or hard it shouldn’t be a particularly difficult thing to grasp

I know why... and I support that completely but if ANYONE deserves to have a BIG PARTY to celebrate their inauguration, it's Biden & Harris!!

Of course it's the right thing to do, but damn why does Joe Biden always have to take the high road when we have a toddler living in the white house who wouldn't know a high road if it smacked him in the head?!?!

i think they should force Trump to attend the inauguration like (get ready, Gone with the Wind reference coming) Rhett made Scarlet dress up and attend Ashley's birthday party in front of the people who knew of her affections for Ashley despite him being married to Melanie. in short, to further humiliate him.

I would have been really surprised if he would have done it any other way. I do feel sad for him though that he and his family have been deprived of that special day’s atmosphere.

Aside from erecting a wall, how will they keep people from coming and congregating anyway?

I was listening to his speech. Sounded so normal and intelligent. No rants, insults, drama or threats. What a difference. I no longer have to exit the room when the news is on and the President speaks

My DS is a senior this year. He turned 18 three weeks after the election. His class trip was going to be to DC for the inauguration. It’s been a year of bad timing for some special events for him, but he is so thrilled that we have a new administration as he enters into adulthood.

It’s been a year of bad timing for some special events for him, but he is so thrilled that we have a new administration as he enters into adulthood. My son just turned 18 after the election and he was begging me to let him drive to DC to attend the inauguration. He was surprisingly OK with the televised event. |
