Maybe my birthday present will be a peaceful, normal US Presidential inauguration.
But until it has safely occurred and we know Biden/Harris are the officially recognized new leaders of the USA, I’m staying braced for unplanned surprises. After all, that’s the new US: instability and unpredictability. Certainly not the wise superpower in which we believed growing up.
May it find its way back to sanity and become a better, wiser country in the process. I breathed a sigh of relief when the elections passed peacefully. Let’s hope that the transition is peaceful, as well; and even though Trump and his followers should be treated as unpredictable, the odds are that it will be peaceful. The Republicans now have a lot of control. Unrest would not be good for them either...it’s in their best interest to make Trump accept reality and at least cooperate reasonably, if not gracefully.
