Meenzer 15552 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 It's real, but obviously it's mainly just being awkward at this stage, given it'll be overturned straight away under the new administration. But it's more red tape for them to untangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Put Biden's speech on for the craic, complete polar opposite to a Trump ego party! Spoke well for his age 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 What an absurd country. All this emotion pouring out, people nearly crying but the life of most Americans won’t change at all.

Meenzer 15552 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Nah, I'm a cynic too but I think the catharsis is absolutely necessary after the last four years. Plenty of problems to be addressed, but it's fine for them to have this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Whilst the left are telling people what they should think there'll be people on the right taking advantage and tapping into their prejudices. Would you rather be a gay teenager being accommodated by a radgey homophobe or somewhere with genuinely liberal values? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one will ever be the orator that Obama is but Biden would appear to be pitching his public utterances just right...won’t make a blind bit of difference to the MAGAs but if he doesn’t start a war, reforms health care and creates a few jobs he’ll be ok..having majority in the house will help Edited January 20, 2021 by PaddockLad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive job trying to repair the US, it is in pieces. For anyone it is a huge task but someone his age even bigger, can't help but feel Kamala Harris will be in the driving seat for the majority of the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21638 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I don't know if America can be healed. It depends whether Trump is the symptom or the cause. If it's the latter, maybe there is a chance. But I think it's the former. Scratch the usually genteel face of American people, underneath there seems to be an undercurrent of pure hatred and racism. I sometimes think it was Obama who initiated over the current problems, a very large minority just couldn't accept a black man as POTUS. The US is undoubtedly a great country, it has the resources to stay so. I genuinely hope it can because if the US is fucked we all are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had actually died a death when Trump revived it on 2011 by saying his birth certificate was fake. Even with nonsense like this Trump lost the popular vote twice. That tells me its a exceedingly vocal minority, but that's still probably 1-2 million.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall the numbers now but it's worth noting that a reasonable percentage of working class white people who voted for Trump, also voted for Obama. Clinton lost their votes. So it either has a woman problem, or it has a rage at the status quo and general shitness of life problem. I mean it has a race problem too, clearly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Greed at the very top has always been the problem in the US and always will, same for everywhere in the world really. The money men pull the strings, even the people with big ideas for the growth of humanity are held back by the paymasters. Sad but true. At least Biden seems like his heart is in the right place.
