I think I agree with having Celebrations at a later time. Things are starting to get more chaotic and I don’t think it will slow down anytime soon. The idea of Celebrating during it all somehow seems distasteful. It’s something to consider.
Lastly… I read a book decades ago that started with the incoming President skipping the ceremony, getting sworn in in the Oval Office, and immediately getting to work. I thought it was such a badass move. I'd love to see Trump do this. Screw the big parade, etc.
I think President Trump should stay as far away from the White House as is humanly possible. First, I’m not convinced that the transition of power will go so smoothly. The Dems have vowed to do everything in their power to stop Trump’s inauguration. They have also vowed not to attend the inauguration, which all by itself makes me incredibly nervous. What are they planning ? It is my hope and daily prayer that Trump’s inner circle can convince him to hold his inauguration at Mar A Lago. There’s time for balls, galas and the like at a later date. Take the oath and immediately get busy cleaning house. Please take General Flynn’s advice. It is very sound advice.
One can take the oath anywhere. It's not about the geographical location. Plus given the shenanigans on 2021, I don't trust the DS to not try something.
