figure out why anyone is getting at all worked up over a swearing in ceremony. It's just a ceremony. The weather, inside/outside, flags, etc. None of this matters at all, and people are getting all wound up over it. Are these the things I am supposed to get excited about? I even saw another post where someone was wishing for people to be shot and killed at this thing, another hoping that Americans suffer. For real?
Newsom will be there to show his support for our system, and nothing more. We should all be following such an example and maybe even stop hoping for people to die or suffer because those things are the exact opposite of Democracy.
