Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it.
This is the precedent.

Joe Biden took the oath outside. On a day that it snowed.
During a pandemic.
Two weeks after the Capitol was attacked.
At age 78.
Where the FUCK are the zillion stories about Trump being too old, too weak, and too feeble to do the job of President? Because last Summer, it was quite a topic.

Yup.
New Marist poll: Trump starts with a net-negative favorability rating, 44% favorable, 49% unfavorable. This destroys the idea Trump has a mandate. Wish Democratic leaders would see these polls and realize Trump is not popular. Stop talking common ground and start fighting!

How to support your local library and librarians through the new regime. >>
Use the public library in your community. Keep track of what is happening at library board meetings and attend to speak out, if needed and able. Attend library fundraising events if you are able. Tell everyone you meet about how valuable public libraries. Become a board member, is able.

Mark my words: right now, it's an editorial cartoon being killed by the brass of The Washington Post. Pretty soon, it's a major story about Trump's corruption being killed by the brass.
This will happen. Get ready for it.
