I find it more interesting that President Donald Trump was our oldest president when sworn-in in 2017 at age 70 years 7 months, and will again be our oldest president when sworn-in in 2025 at age 78 years 7 months. In 2017, he surpassed President Ronald Reagan as the oldest president to be sworn-in, and in 2025, he’ll have surpassed President Joe Biden as the oldest president to be sworn-in.

It’s on TV too early, and I’m sure I will find most of it boring. I’ll wait until evening
and catch some of the highlights on TV. And I don’t really need to hear any of the
speeches because they are always the same, and I already heard them.

If I can. I am eager for President Trump to be inaugurated. Part of that is just the knowledge that biden will wither away on a beach and can cause no more global damage. He still has a couple days to try to ruin society, like the recent release of I believe 2500 criminals in one fell swoop.

I don’t typically watch any of them. I will find the written transcript of the speech and have students compare it to the inaugural addresses of the past. They look for similarities and differences and analyze word choice and tone. I usually have them compare to Washington’s first inaugural, Lincoln’s first and second inaugural, Kennedy’s, Nixon’s first, and Reagon’s first inaugural.

How do you have your students address the changes in language and speech since 1789?

Nope.
It’s all political baloney.
Costly pomp and circumstance that that’s not needed.
Trump got voted in, and it’s time to get to work.

Yes!! Be like Christmas all over!!
We had to put up with a pathetic clown show for 4 years!
If those of you who are still b*tt sore, Canada and Mexico just a short trip away!
HaHa! Love it! And so true! Canada and Mexico are just a short trip away so leave or spend an extra few hours and leave to another country! Get these illegals and anyone who supports them out of here!
Orange is the new crack.
I’m sure it’ll be fine.
Felon convicted, serial draft dodging sexual degenerates
Who tell weirdly obvious lies,
often end up running cults. And countries. Look it up.
People are weird when they’re scared.

Yes I started watching them on a tiny B/W tv back in January 1961…went to school that morning and they had another slightly bigger B/W tv on the stage of the cafeteria, that we were told to watch.

Yes, looking forward to watching it. President Trump was voted in by a landslide so if there are any protesters there tomorrow lets hope they all behave.
No! I’ve never had any interest in actually watching any inauguration, although Jackson’s would have been worth seeing. I also have no interest in watching the Emmys, Oscars, Golden Globes, or any other award shows. However, I am a sucker for Scout Courts of Honor.
Yes!
Hell yeah! #TRUMPFOREVER
I think it’s interesting that Trump is 78 years old, the same age Biden was on the day when he was inaugurated.
Oh! Interesting. Trump is by far more competent.

Seriously. Pack your bags!

I love Canada and Mexico, love your neighbors, they have to put up with 4 years of insults.

Canada, Mexico, and their elected leaders don’t have to put up with 4 years of “insults,” they’re free to do the same.
You do realize the irony in using the term b*ttsore while also calling the last four years a “clown show”? Did you move to Canada or Mexico?
Hell yeah! Let’s go Trump and get these illegals out of here, like yesterday! But Newscum needs to go too, not just Biden!
I think the LA wildfires was the straw that broke the camels back for everyone. Grease ball isn’t going to become president … no chance.
Kitty, logic would dictate that, but I have to warn you, do not underestimate the stubborn ignorance of the democrat voter.
Yeah, you are probably right, people aren’t that intelligent.
I can’t wait, gonna be an utter-clown show. 😜
I wonder which shade of orange bronzer will be on his mug.
Orange is the new crack.
I’m sure it’ll be fine.
