John Scalzi, my favorite SF author, penned a farewell essay that says it all:

The nightmare is finally over, but there is a lot of hard work ahead to restore our country. Tonight, after watching the Inauguration, I can see a future again.

Wow, now that really sums up Trump to a tee!! Just hope that Joe Biden can undo a lot that Trump has done especially on global warming where Trump insinuated that it was all a hoax.

I miss him already! Now we have to put up with sleepy old Joe. On a positive note at least listening to him when he is cogent is like taking a sleeping pill.

Completely agree!blanston12 wrote: ↑21 Jan 2021, 01:59I can only speak for myself. I supported Biden through both the primary and general election and the biggest issue was just getting rid of Trump. Incumbent presidents usually get reelected, in the last 100 years more than 75% of presidents who have run for re-election have been successful, I looked at all the other candidates, and I really did not see anyone who I thought could beat him, all the others were either too far left, too unknown or too 'different' for many to accept. But everyone knows who Joe Biden is, he has been around for a very long time and is too well known for any of the misinformation that would be flung at him to stick. As it was it was much closer than I thought it would be and I am very happy todays events were peaceful.
