Looking away from Donald and team this Monday could mean missing one of the many opening day moments of the rest of the Trump era.
Donald Trump had candy in his mouth. Perhaps a throat lozenge, necessary on a windy day with low temperatures that made him try to close his coat and fail. Maybe he needed help, but even when he got it, it didn’t work.
Melania held the two bibles chosen by Donald for this occasion, one that was used for President Lincoln’s oath more than a century and a half ago, and the other from Trump’s mother. But when he placed his left hand on them, he didn’t do it.
The issue has already been clarified: the oath is about honoring the constitution and the Bible is not mandatory, especially because a President can have another or no religion.
The almost kiss messed up by the hat brim
Forward. After the ceremony was completed he wanted to kiss the first lady. It looks like the brim of a hat (in fact, it was created by Eric Javits). kept the distance. The first impression in this forum was one of immense debate on social media, it was another moment of lack of skill on both sides in the practice of affection, as has been seen in the past. But it was just the brim of a hat that was too big.
Egos were let loose among many guests. Highlight for Elon Musk, the man who put Trump in the air with the promise of reaching Mars. The man also took thanks to Trump’s voters to another level.
And thanks to legislation, the government efficiency department that the billionaire will head is neither a department nor has the power to reform, because it is just an advisory committee.
Asked after a storm of criticism for giving the Nazi salute or what many consider to be a salute from the other man’s time, Elon wrote in X: Him, Musk.
The dance with sword in hand
Without tricks and with some danger, Trump didn’t let go of the sword with which he cut the inauguration cake and danced to the song he likes most for these occasions and which was a gay anthem in the 80s. As for dancing with a sword, it’s better not to try that at home .
And the music played until the end, something that almost didn’t happen a few hours before. But the recorded music persisted in reaching the Capitol. Carrie was professional and sang for the chapel on a day that was marked by moments.
