President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

[Baron Scicluna]

It's not noon yet. Does this mean that we have two Presidents for 10 minutes?

 

[Machine Head]

 

[TowelWaver]

We made it!!

 

[wicked]

And now 2021 officially begins.

 

[UPChip]

Maybe in as big a sign as any for government, this ceremony is running nearly 15 minutes ahead of schedule.

 

[Songbird]

 

[Mngwa]

Hells yes!

 

[tapintoamerica]

Seriously here: How did the inaugural committee screw this up? Constitution says POTUS' term doesn't begin until noon. Was it intentional?

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

If Biden is president for eight years, will this thread have more posts than Trump's?

 

[Gutter]

I still have power ... I still have internet. Anyone else?

 

[BTExpress]

Good thinking. Got the swearing in done before the scheduled 11:59 bomb goes off.

 

[UPChip]

Some of this audio is a little bit wonky. Maybe they should give him Gaga's mic?

 

[Patchen]

Best of luck, Mr. President. You inherit a mess and I hope you have the wisdom, grace and good fortune to steer us through it. While you are following an absolute disaster, your opponents won't grade on a curve. Most of us, I think, are merely hoping for four years of stability, sanity and a president interested enough to ready briefing books.
