Inauguration Day and protests

PBS News Hour: Trump signs first official documents as U.S. president



Inauguration Day went off without any problems. The inaugural address was a more polished and less bombastic campaign ode than the usual inaugural speech. A third of the crowd on the national mall wore the famous "Make America Great" red caps and cowboy hats. The former presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, George W. Bush were cordial with one another. Even Bob Dale made a rare public appearance at the inauguration stand sitting near the entrance. Dale was greeted by all the presidents including the new President Trump. For the millions of supporters watching at home and the under 1 million at the National mall, Trump's inauguration is the "ha ha" and "we told ya so" confirmation that Trump will get what he wants in the end. And that an outsider was long overdue to be the White House.

ABC News: Trump Inauguration | Protesters Blocking Passage to Celebration







There are ongoing anti-Trump protests in DC and across the country that have been ignored by the mainstream media thus far. Inauguration Day is choreograph carefully and extra care is taken to show the public and world a united country despite the political and social divisions brought on by Trump's win. Remember, the protesters are not Democratic supporters. Most of the protests aren't even about rather or not if the U.S. would be better off if Trump wasn't the final choice. The election debate has long been over. Many protesters are union workers, human rights activists, health care workers, pro education, socialists, Marxist, moderate, anti-capitalist, anti-corporation and most apolitical as far as the two parties are concerned. They are interested in real and genuine justice for all people and want human rights to be protected for all Americans. Environmental protesters tried to block some public attendees' entrance into the inaugural grounds while chanting to protect Mother Earth.
