According to my calculations, I’ve been cognitive human being through about 23 Presidential Inaugurations.
Which is not to say I remember any of them.
They’re basically The Academy Awards of American politics.
Then again, there’s never been one like this.
Memorable specifically because it wasn’t about reverent, worshipful asskissing.
It was a show.
And the American people did not disappoint.
It’s too competitive an industry.
The journos need to be first, even if it means letting an occasional FCC violation slip through.
Whether it’s a football game, an NBA Finals, or an inaugural.
Like all of you, I don’t spend two seconds a decade on this channel.
But I do respect the passion.
Like he said, these are dark times in many ways.
As long as we’re free to say “Let’s fucking go!”
