How do you safely stage a presidential inauguration in the middle of a deadly pandemic?

But while planners of past presidential inaugurations have had to resolve complex issues like how to handle crowd control and security matters, organizers of the Jan.

Planning for those events is handled by the Presidential Inaugural Committee created by the winning candidate shortly after the election. Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser’s office said it is awaiting guidance from the president-elect on whether the traditional inaugural parade would go on as usual next year.

Pres elect Biden is more concern about the welfare of this country. He’s not like someone else we all know.. T D 🤬

Zoom

Or, just do it in the White House like LBJ instead of being self consumed.

It’s rather easy. Do a small crowd and the rest virtually.

Zoom?😂

What a picture🤣😂🤪 Kinda love it but not a usual choice!

Invite his dead voters?

Do a Pay-Per-View of inauguration and donate the money to Biden to buy PPE for hospital staff.

He better step back and inclued the real winner Trump.

You start by waiting for the final outcome which in this case will be a legal battle against fraud and bombardment of news trying to say who has won, which is not in anyway true.

🍎🍎🍎 ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE? Oh I forgot the MEDIA is judge and jury in todays world... I HATE IT WHEN I read the rules! And the louder people dont... December 14th ... 🍎🕊

Democrats& Republicans are not politically sophisticated otherwise instead of their aggressive attitude against each other, the 2 parties we're working together in order to find concrete answers to the technicalities,that made imperfect their elections process, creatingSUSPICION

Cheater cheater cheater never my president we now have a White House in the pocket of a terrorist organization

Guaranteed that Trump will say something like 'did you see that pathetically small inauguration crowd? Mine was the largest in the history of mankind, and beyond.'

I would add to that safety concerns from the far-right.

I don’t care HOW they do the inauguration.... just get it done, lol. My heart can’t take much more of this 😆

You don’t be concerned about pomp and circumstance and begin to govern.

Sir! No worries, it shouldn’t be a problem as long as you invite the zombies of your voters. (:

Trump avstår gjerne fra å delta. Men ikke pga smittevernregler. Biden må jo delta, men risikerer å bli syk. Presidenter har dødd pga kald vind tidligere i historien.

It's performance. Who gives a shit. Cancel it.

He probably shouldn't have a traditional one at all. Bad look because covid, economy, etc. Would really send a message.

'!This claim is disputed.

Usa today are idiots

Drive-in theater. People stay in cars. Honk the heck at his speech he gives from an electric car.

Biden's senility is a clear and present danger!

Easy: Don’t stage one. Let’s simply swear-in JoeBiden & KamalaHarris, so they can get to work immediately. We would save our scarce tax $$, and also end the corruption of bribing an incoming administration for influence, favors and govt contracts.

Donate money for balls to food pantries all over US

Joe Biden 46 will show you how it's done...go Joe..🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽

Treat it like one of his campaign rallies.

You don't with Biden who is not the President-elect!

Ask Portland. They have related experience.

First you have to be officially certified 😏

Probably Cheeto Face won't be attending.

Live from Joe's Basement, It's the Presidential Inauguration. Look at the virtual crowd! 🤣

I hope his kind would go to the otherside of the world and the people that love Jesus Christ God in Flesh. come to the Americasss you know North America, Central America, and South America. a place without the Ten Laws God wrote would be Hell dont you think.

No pressing reason for grand coronation, a simple, austere formality is appropriate in these times of monumental challenges and sufferings.

Do it via zoom. We don’t need the big ceremony.

You grow a set and don’t hide in your basement

Biden's ego will allow for it to be downplayed for safety. Thank goodness.

🇺🇲❤️🙏 his friends in Antifa BLM have plenty of experience organising. Maybe he should ask them and see what they say. Maybe a mini riot or some looting while he is sworn in. 😂🙏

FEC Chairman: Trump campaign bringing 'legitimate accusations' of election fraud to court. Joe is not President

Is it really needed, do it live in tv be done with it

You have Twitter do it. Isn't it planning to do just that?

Postpone the public ceremonies til the summer. Swear him in as President as soon as possible

Call it a protest.

In his basement

Limit the amount of guest or space the seats 6' apart.😊😊😊

No worry on crowds - The dude couldn’t fill a middle school gym 😂

He’s used to 8 cars at his rally’s. Maybe they could show up for him and honk.

Is it deadly if almost no one dies?

Just postpone it until Summer.

Plus he didn’t really get those votes so the crowd would have been small.

Virtually. Is this really a question?

'COVID, COVID, COVID': In Trump's Final Chapter, a Failure to Rise to the MomentWASHINGTON -- It was a warm summer Wednesday, Election Day was looming and President Donald Trump was even angrier than usual at the relentless focus on the coronavirus pandemic.'You're killing me! This whole thing is! We've got all the damn cases,' Trump yelled at Jared Kushner, his son-in-law and senior adviser, during a gathering of top aides in the Oval Office on Aug. 19. 'I want to do what Mexico does. They don't give you a test till you get to the emergency room and you're vomiting.'Mexico's record in fighting the virus was hardly one for the United States to emulate. But the president had long seen testing not as a vital way to track and contain the pandemic but as a mechanism for making him look bad by driving up the number of known cases.Sign up for The Morning newsletter from the New York TimesAnd on that day he was especially furious after being informed by Dr. Francis S. Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health, that it would be days before the government could give emergency approval to the use of convalescent plasma as a treatment, something Trump was eager to promote as a personal victory going into the Republican National Convention the following week.'They're Democrats! They're against me!' he said, convinced that the government's top doctors and scientists were conspiring to undermine him. 'They want to wait!'Throughout late summer and fall, in the heat of a reelection campaign that he would go on to lose, and in the face of mounting evidence of a surge in infections and deaths far worse than in the spring, Trump's management of the crisis -- unsteady, unscientific and colored by politics all year -- was in effect reduced to a single question: What would it mean for him?The result, according to interviews with more than two dozen current and former administration officials and others in contact with the White House, was a lose-lose situation. Trump not only ended up soundly defeated by Joe Biden, but missed his chance to show that he Sure showing your bias tonight, He was always like that. People who knew Trump knew about is inability to 'rise to the moment.' He failed from the very beginning. He has ZERO leadership skills.
