- While the socially distanced crowd and the glaring absence of an outgoing president made for a most unusual Inauguration Day for Joe Biden, a sense of optimism prevailed as did the feeling that a return to 'normal' may be possible. #LateShowLIVE #Inauguration2021 #Monologue

Stephen I’m an Aussie (almost a Kiwi) and I was laughing and crying with joy and relief for all of the world. Your joy expresses what we are all feeling. Thank you America for saving us all 🙏🏿😂💕🇦🇺
Almost a Kiwi! What happened?
Only kidding, I'm with you 100% ✌️😁
Alguds sis hope you and the family is all good 😊😊
Thank you so much for your kindness!!
Sounds like Stephen's crew is extra happy today...and rightfully so.
@@emblemedfate4270 trump killed 400,000 Americans embarrassed the nation every day and constantly lied through out his time in office man relax people are just happy because the bar has been set so low. Don’t be a hater (YET)
@@emblemedfate4270 Maybe you shouldn't judge someone based on the actions of their former boss and let this be a new beginning? Isn't that what New Years is all about, turning over a new leaf?

@@emblemedfate4270 he’s still your president
In case anyone is curious, JLo’s shout out in Spanish was “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”
Why? USA speaks English.
Edit: easy up people, I’m not from the USA, I imagine that USA spoke only English. I didn’t know Spanish was also spoken. My bad. I now know.
gracias!
Thank u..I was wondering what jlo said
@@jasonmason6910 because Latinos who speak Spanish make up a large part of our population, we are effectively bilingual in many places, knowing more than one language is good for your mental health, and latinos got Trumped hard for 4 years straight.
@@jasonmason6910 she is an American and Americans speak many languages. English is not the official language last time I checked. Why does it bother you so much?
Love that his wife sits there and laughs at him the whole time. So good.
@Reverend Mr Black No, not really.
@Reverend Mr Black It helps when they're not locked in with a cast-iron prenup...
@Reverend Mr Black No, she actually re-negotiated her pre-nup before the inauguration. You think it was a joke? Nope. That's just how pathetic the reality you've bought into really is.
"the last president sold his soul to the devil and didn't even get Georgia from out of the deal" - great line!
OH thats WAS good lol
😆😂🤣 I KNOW!!
😂😂🙌🏽🙌🏽😂😂
Can’t sale what you don’t have
The last president thought he could fiddle like no one had ever fiddled before. Conned the devil, though, for he hadn't a soul to lose.
I'm Australian and even I sighed in relief today.
Welcome Back America!
Ditto
Same here! Oh yeah mate!
Another Aussie who walked around with a smile on my face. Although the mask hid it, I am sure it was obvious in my eyes and the way I was light on my feet as I walked.
Even though we have alot to do, I am happy the President has manners and common decency. Especially when it comes to interacting with other diplomats.
Bloody oath, ha ha!!! 🇦🇺🇺🇸
Joe is boring me with a sane speech and I’m so fucking happy with that.
Couldn’t have said it better. 👍
Sane and boring are wonderful!!!
Amen brother 😎
Never take your hands off the wheel, but at least now, we can loosen our grip
Sane speech and behavior. Oh, and words we can understand...
Stephen has the light back in his eyes!

Same. After four years of holding breath waiting to see what rights would be taken away, I can breathe for a moment again...
I’m a Chinese,I’m so glad America finally become ours,communism is the best🎉🎉🎉
Besides being a selfish A hole , what bothered me most is trump gets away with every bs action he has done. His whole life of screwing people over. Now he is gone! Hope forever.

Right now we can finally do both.
Im British and saw it on tv all day in the UK. It was emotional. Especially your vice president being sworn in..that bought a tear in my eye. When your president walked in and it started slightly snowing. I thought wow.

It really is so wonderful seeing everyone around the world sharing in our joy!
✨It was such a breath of fresh air to just see and hear a president talk with tact, respect, and decorum. I thought that had been totally lost
Oh yes the speech was so lovely
There was no insults or negativity or self elevating or bragging or lying. Just happy peace unity so much nice things
I'd be honored if some fellow concerned citizens would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of DANCING IN THE DARK by Bruce Springsteen on my YT channel in tribute to the United States of America and our 46th President, Joseph R. Biden. Peace and everybody stay safe.
And he didn't spend any time at all telling us who to hate, who to fear, who to blame for our problems.
@@willritter4076 not bad, keep going! 👏 👏 👏 👏
Sometimes you don’t know what you’re carrying until you put it down.

Like dreading to take off the shoes that hurt ...because the pain will be so much worse! But I’m getting over it! Got up this morning and did NOT turn the news on! I could just TRUST our country was still here! Ahhhhhhh.....
I don’t know what you’re complaining about, everyone knows you got a micro
Jesus no shit. I am suffering from PTTD.
Does anyone know what Jlo actually shouted?🤔
I'm french, and I speak English pretty well, but sadly no spanish.
My favorite part was how Joe just stood at the top of the balcony with his arm around Jill just taking all in. Those fireworks were everything Trump wanted, but never got.
Yeah, a wife that actually loves her husband, and vice-versa.
I'd be honored if some fellow citizens would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of DANCING IN THE DARK by Bruce Springsteen on my YT channel in tribute to the United States of America and our 46th President, Joseph R. Biden. Peace and enjoy this great day for democracy.
Did u see when Mr Harris was doing a little dance at the end of the fireworks. It was so cute he was so happy for his wife.
I had the same thought myself. Seeing him and Jill standing there, all I could think was "he deserves this."
5 decades of trying and politics, starting off as a barely noticed senator, finally coming together as he dethrones a tyrant.
I can't help but smile seeing this day finally come.
I loved the Biden-Obama fistbump
Congratulation America. We, the rest of the free-thinking world, were very worried for you. Love from Australia 🇦🇺 🇺🇸
At last, a very American reply, we're working on it.
😂😂
We American love you Australian!
Thank you for all our friends from Australia!🥰
We had a bit of fever. We're ok now.
I cried as we’ll and I’m not even American. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Danke my friend. We've been through so much but we've finally got some semblance of peace...
Thank you 🇺🇸 💓🇩🇪

Hi there
😂😂😂
I'm a proud Aussie but even I cried and why not: Lady Gaga's emotion packed rendition of your national anthem: Garth Brooks passionate Amazing Grace: President Biden's awesome and powerful speech and then that (I'm tearing up again) stunning, inspirational poem by Amanda Gorman a true national treasure. It gives me and you, hope for the future with that young woman in it.
Steve Andrews all this right under the nose of the former trUmp criminals....
@@nononsense5182 Yep and now you have me smiling huge with that thought.
Amanda Gorman, an absolute brilliant poet. And her presentation as well - one would never, ever know she's had to work to overcome a speech impediment
@@hkbabel So I just saw on her CNN interview. I'm shaking my head in disbelief at her talent and smiling in anticipation of what she will do next.
I thought I had cried all of my tears today. But you've got me misty again! Thank you, friend from down under. Really means a lot to hear about our friends in other countries who are rooting for us to heal and to succeed. These were the most depressing, hopeless, maddening four years of my life and for this country. Most of us Americans really love, and want to live in peace with, our friends around the world. We have been so desperate, embarrassed, and exasperated. So again, thank you for caring and for being invested in the well-being of our country. Bless your sweet heart.
The 180 degree difference in the "feel" of Stephen's monologue is so refreshing. It's reflected in his voice, his body language, and the responses of everyone around him - that pure laughter, party because of the humour but partly because of the absolute relief they are all feeling.
So accurate!!!
Also, a blazer
Indeed!
Oh how I agree with your assessment ABC 123. It's such a good feeling all over. .awesome me so thankful and I just want to Smile and Dance.
Right, you can tell that he's openly positive and excited. I wonder if he suspects that trump leaving might hurt his ratings, since trump was a non-stop clown show disaster. But ratings aren't everything
I love how you’re the only late night show host that acknowledged JLo’s Spanish translation of the last day 10 words from The Pledge of Allegiance.
¡Muchas Gracias Esteban!
@Relic Arcane You first. I love how immigrants tell other immigrants to go back. You're absolutely ridiculous 🤣
I noticed that too. We should acknowledge that Spanish and Native languages have been spoken on this American land even before 1776. America is an idea and an array of people and cultures. Democracy celebrates diversity.
@@dannahinojosa1934 Stop. You'll offend the silly little racists

@@ScienceBitch123 many ignorant people are afraid of what they don’t understand.
That bible looks like a tome a wizard would use to summon a dragon.
@Jane Sharp Joe Biden is a Christian. Donald Trump is not. And it shows, in a big, big way. Maybe you should stop worshipping false idols and stop trolling on the internet, threatening strangers with Hell (threatening strangers who you know nothing about, no less). You give religion a bad name, people like yourself. Repent.
It was the Biden family Bible. Those types of Bible are extra-large, and not only are they lavishly illustrated, they have a large section in the front for recording family history such as births, marriages, and deaths. (Our family has one.)
@@sinisin2000 I was actually meaning to reply to that Jane Sharp character. I actually agree that the Biden Bible looks like a cool prop from a fantasy movie. No harm, no foul, yeah? T**** is gone; we can relax.
@@lisagulick4144 No worries. Statement retracted.
@Jane Sharp Not afraid of god because he isn’t real. I’m also not afraid of Santa Claus or Chase from paw patrol.

God let it be OVER already.
People who believe they should speak for the world, think they know whats right for the entire world is the current sickness plaguing the world.
No joke. No joke. I watched it an hour later and I just started hiccuping and then I cried for like 15 minutes in front of my kids. Of course they don't understand. This has been a nightmare. Just a damn nightmare. I feel a huge sense of belief.
Same 🙌🏽💙
I listened to “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles today and started crying. It feels like years since it’s been here.
If you're crying over Presidential elections then you might want to go seek professional help.
Bunch of whiners, would you like some cheese with that whine?
And they say Trump voters were part of a cult....
"A president with soul, The last president sold his soul to the devil and didn't get Georgia back! " 😆Well said!
It turns out trump couldn't play the fiddle very well, and lost it to the Devil.

I'm so damn happy. And relieved. We finally have an adult back in the WH. I'm sure the entire planet is relieved too. These last 4 years the WH has basically doubled as an adult daycare facility.
Something we Browns and Steelers fans can agree on
I love how much joy Stephen gets from making his wife laugh. So wholesome
I love seeing her and the obvious love between them
Yeah, they are each other’s biggest fans.
The Star Spangled Banner was smothered. Now flying Free! 🇺🇸
The whole world exhaled in relief today. It was so lovely to see three previous presidents come together to greet President Biden. They stepped up to the call that Trump refused to do like a child.
It's ironic... his greatest fear is appearing weak, but by not attending he looks completely spineless and pathetic.
You sound like a person who would let someone spit on you for four years then go to their birthday party lol
@@michaelconroy9975 naw
In the first two decades of the 21st century Americans have put in power the likes of GW Bush and Trump. Two of the worst Presidents in less than 20 years.
It will take a while for the US to be taken seriously again or appear as trustworthy.
@@michaelconroy9975 It was the respectful thing for the former president to do. Trump's proved he has no respect for anything except himself and his own over-inflated ego.
The wheel of challenges was the first moment I realized I never have to think about jared kushner ever again.
Oh, and no more Stephen Miller!
Kushner.. he looks like a Kewpie doll. Just the look on his face says creep. I thought so from day one. The look on his face is just as fake is Ivanka's plastic plastered on smile. She's going to have to go back to pedaling clothing on QVC that not one woman would be caught dead wearing.
Just a neighbour here but I thought that day was rare, very special indeed and I danced like crazy watching the inauguration. America prevailed against toxicity.✌👏👍🇨🇦
I danced all day!! 💃
Awh, Canada. We love you!
I cried and smiled like an idiot the whole way, it was beautiful, music and poetry and sanity. I'm proud of our American neighbors again, this felt like a weight was being lifted off for everyone, soul cleansing for sure ✌️
Same here from the Netherlands! 🙏🙏🙏 beautiful day
Thanks Canadian friend! It’s indeed a wonderful day for the whole world 🌍

There are millions and millions of people all over the world who were worried about America. The world has emerged into light at last. Thank you Mr. Colbert for your insightful humor over the dark times. God bless America!!
Yes.. Stephen got us through some dark days with his humor! Thank you Jack!
America is already blessed. That's why she's spoiled rotten. And right now, her breath stinks. After the blessing, what do we do with it? Help those truly in need and take the weight and burden of taxation off of the working class solely, and let the rich pay their fair share. There's absolutely NO reason why I pay more taxes than the Gates'.

This is the USA I remember.

@K. Tour That's a matter of public record. You can look all of that up yourself.
A president that talks about "We" and "Us" and not "Me" and "I".....that is where unity begins.
Best of luck. Your new president is selling y'all out.

Exactly ! Now I can start drinking less .
I dressed up for work today, and I'm working from home.
It's funny how he just threw a jacket over the shirt he had on yesterday's show lol
Stephen looks tired, like he just woke up from a coma.
Vaccines all round. I'm buying! Now let's party like we're going to our first summer baseball game! Or, Miracle of miracles, the Winnipeg Jets FINALLY won the Stanley Cup. That Would be a party!
This land is my land and I am proud to be an American. It feels good to say that again. Thank you Mr. President Biden.
Me, too #ProudAgain
I don't suggest a return to normal. "Normal" is how we got to the last four years. We need to do better than go back to where we were. Time to create a new normal and make the world a better place.
Absolutely. If it's any consolation, I don't think there is really going back to the old normal. A new normal is unavoidable.
I agree. I think that's what they mean by normal...
Colbert will probably NEVER criticize the awful things Biden will do. Hes rich and doesn't care.
@@jessyjulie5506 You will probably never realize that you can't predict the future.
@@jessyjulie5506 I am reminded of his time at the daily show where he and John Steward were critical and dissapointed by President Obama.
Tears still falling when I think about what we all endured the past four years. What a relief to my body, mind, and soul! I finally can take a deep breath and release the whole breath! Never have I cried so much at an Inauguration, every speech, every song, and the poem! Beautiful, every moment. I did not get bored with speeches or pomp and circumstance. It was refreshing and beautiful!!!
Biden wasn't my preferred candidate, but I genuinely teared up when Joe Biden was sworn in, I felt a palpable sense of relief.
Same here! I am hoping that he will push for some actual changes, and not just take us back to the status quo that led to this whole nightmare in the first place.
I think there are lots of Republicans who feel the same way.
Oh ! So picking a new master to rule you and your family makes you tear up! I can't believe he was able to get a whole sentence out!
He did sign us up to the NWO Paris agreement and the WHO JUST IN TIME ! FOR THE FRAUDULENT GREAT RESET!
@@wcisean Seriously? You make a comment about full sentences when trump couldn't hold a thought for 20 seconds. trumps word salad response to everything was childish and vile in most cases.

Remember to enjoy the calm but never allow ourselves to fall asleep again or it will allow Trump or someone like him to happen again and we may lose our democracy forever.
Is this the plot for a fantasy film? The country being united, what a joke
I felt absolute relief after Biden’s speech. I didn’t realize I was this uptight until I heard his speech and the relief washed over me.
I remember when I first heard that Biden had definitely won (before all the histrionics of the losers) - the process of muscles in my back and shoulders relaxing and unknotting themselves was actually painful as the relief set in. One of those things where you don’t even remember anymore how stressful something has been until the burden is lightened.
I cried.
I'm still crying.
It is such a relief to have Drumpf GONE!
@@shbondful all the muscles in my neck and back relaxing..I wondered what that feeling was, I thought I was having a stroke!
I felt relief when Joe was announced as the projected winner.
My body had been on high alert since 2016. I hadn't felt so relaxed in years.
I watched and cried because my heart and soul needed to see this as 4 years of horror and torture left. I watched Trump leave and waited in anticipation for Biden/Harris. When that happened my heart felt so much lighter and I didn't feel sick to my stomach. Nausea for 4 years, migraines, and constant stress made the fibromyalgia fun (Absolute sarcasm on the fibro being fun its hell). For once, I was able to sleep and woke up with a clear sky and sun shining. Its been gloomy for 2 months, no joke! I'm ready to keep that feeling going and its liberating! Stay safe. Keep hope alive! We got work to do!

Kinda nice to go from Donald "I take no responsibility" Trump, to Joe "my whole soul is in it" Biden.
Thank you for your simple and direct explanation...I’ve been waking up nights in the Trump administration, with anxiety.... you grab the iPad to see the latest crazy news. Well, fellow Americans, love you, roll over and go back to sleep.... our country is being taken care of.
What a joke..
I'm very very happy trump is gone but getting Biden in there is no real relief, just the appearance of it. Policies from Biden and establishment types like him from both parties are the reason some people were desperate enough to be fooled into voting for trump in the first place. Decades of terrible policies that lead to a smaller middle class and insane income inequality, voting for the Iraq war, not punishing those responsible for the financial crises of 2008; those policies are the "norms" Biden is referring too. Trump rightfully deserves mountains upon mountains of criticism but people would be fools to not look at the underlying policy failures that led to his election. And Biden is an exemplar of those failed policies.
Biden's inauguration felt like taking a shower.
GREAT way to put it! 👍🏼
Or sitting by the ocean on a warm summer's day.
It felt like finding everything you’ve ever lost at the same time
Oh my God, the thought brings tears to my eyes! And I ALSO thought about, at the same time, all of the love ones I had lost during those 4 years of sheer out and out hell, thank you Lord!
... after 4 years.
I just can't get enough of her giggles in the background and seeing how that makes Stephen glow. It's like he does the jokes only for her. What a marriage.
Yeah, that is great
It's better to be a joke deliver, than the joke who delivers.
CIA propaganda makes me giggle too
Adds more warmth to the atmosphere, he's always felt like a people person and it's nice that he's able to interact the way he likes to and his home audience is too haha.
Mrs.Colbert is so cute laughing at her Boo's jokes. He was performing for an audience of one, his Boo.😄💙
The whole country felt joyous. In my area I could actually see the smiles via peoples eyes. Both the spouse and I teared up throughout the entire broadcast. It felt like finally getting away from a horribly abusive partner (gaslighting, emotional abuse, bullying, threats). I can breath again. I can really take deep breaths again - such a relief.
Had to take deep breaths to make it four years myself......
They didn't stop existing, or stop being in the senate.
That's a very apt description. The last four years really have been nothing but abuse. Am so glad we got a President who seems intent on healing and guiding our nation back to health.
Boy, was I was waiting for this monolog... We are all so relieved today.
Yes me too.

When the tw couples stood at the bottom of the Capitol steps when they arrived, hand to God, l swear, the camera l was watching, the sun hit the flag pin on his lapel, and the was a flash of light. I am going to search for the footage. Hugs from Canada!🤗🤗🤗😷🇨🇦
I was just thinking to myself the other day, "I wonder if Mike Pence took that narrow pass with murder as a divine sign that he needs to change his ways", but then my inner cynic was like, "Nah when god talks to the religious it's _only_ ever to tell them how right they are and encourage them to keep going, never to tell them HEY ASSHOLE, KNOCK IT OFF, THIS AIN'T IT CHIEF"... aaaaall of the resistance/bad things are attributed to the opposing force(s), never themselves.
Funny how that works, huh.
Exactly
Stephen is feeling what every SANE american has been feeliing all day.
And he dressed up too.
Sad that we have to add the word SANE to that sentence. And yet... very very true.
It's like when you finally exit the asylum and the screaming lunatics are far away behind you.
We need more SANE people in this country !
Yes, we sane ones, the 15% of the nation, feel the same relief
What a happy day for the US 🇺🇸🎉🙏🏻 and for the whole world! 🌎 👏🏻
I love how we laugh at the jokes regarding Biden in the cutest happiest grandpa way. It's a lovely change from laughing because we want to cry. ❤️
@Reverend Mr Black 8000 out of hundreds of millions of people? Not to mention, 8,000 people who are qualified for many more jobs? Sorry if I’m not tearing up.
It has not just been Americans Steven. A great day for humanity. Love from Australia.
Absolutely. Second that from Australia ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😎
It is so nice to see and hear that Stephen and everyone in the show just loving life again.
It feels good to laugh just to laugh, instead of having to laugh because if you didn't, you'd be crying.
Truer words haven’t been said today!
Gracias, Stephen. I am a Native Texan , A U. S. citizen, a practicing Catholic and felt proud of J-Lo, for saying part of our pledge in Spanish. My heritage, and I am proud. Blessed be 46.
It feels like 10 years, but I hope we can go back to politics being boring, presidential speeches being dull and democracy being ensured.
Amen!!!!!
Ya but that will translate to the show being boring
Oh, God. That turns me on soooo fuckin much.
Or at the very least a mutual respect between presidents after the election finishes
Yep, in perfectly okay with politics being boring again. Trump's time in power was never boring but felt like a nightmare.
Canadian here expressing gratitude to the 81 000 000 US citizens who made this day happen. 🇨🇦🤝🇺🇲 Good job neighbors 👍
you're welcome
Likewise from us here in 'Straya. We are also breathing a collective sigh of relief.
I concur
are you perhaps grateful enough to take a few loonies off our hands? Just, say, 20 million Qanon supporters? Please? Because we've got A LOT of work to do spreading the good word of fact and truth to those people, and it would REALLY help us out if you lessened the load.

I'm glad for Stephen. He actually looks happy after so long making jokes out of outrages. I'm happy for America too. May you move forward with lighter steps and optimism in your hearts.
Oh, and cut down on social and mainstream media for awhile, that crap is still toxic.
@Tay Woode says the guy repeatedly stirring up shit in a RUclips comedy clip comment section 🙄
that's good - but remember you can cut down on media but media will never cut down - always ready as they are to shape your reality - how old are you ??
I feel like I've been in a narcissistic abusive relationship for the last 4 years.
Well in actual fact you have been an abusive relationship with trump. We all have and no matter where in the world you live it has been very draining.
you too? same
It felt much like my 1st husband.
We have been. Nothing else to call it
You have.
Most of the World has.
Joe Biden loves the people and saw him going out of his way to talk to people on the sidelines when he was walking to the White House. He's a nice man.
He's a really nice man. I've always liked his humanity & decency.
Like he called that guy fat who simply asked him a critical question and challenged him to a push-up contest?
I honestly expected him to start skipping, he was so happy lol.
@@Rhythmicons - no one claimed he was a saint. But I've still to hear him call those he disagrees with "losers" ... or make fun of the handicapped ...or tell naturalized citizens to "go back" to their countries.
@@jacqdanieles He regularly gloated about beating the progressives. He seems to hold more hostility towards them (us) than he does Republicans. All that cumbaya he wants to sing about unity doesn't mean shit if he isn't delivering soul crushing defeat to the white supremacists domestic terrorists.
Biden is loss-mitigation at best.
His Joe Biden impression kills me every time ' Jack ' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice to see that the adults are in charge again, hi 5's from New Zealand.
It feels surreal to hear Stephen say “PRESIDENT Biden” !
The feeling is so good
@@SpidermanFan92 i woke up this morning so happy.
It feels surreal to me that I can say the words "Mr. President" without dry heaving and breaking out in hives.

@@brianward7231 let’s give him a group hug! hahaha cracky trumpers need some attention.
Fitting that the band plays out, "Don't you worry about a thing".
Who else cried a lot? When Joe & Jill Biden hugged after being sworn in, I felt that.
I cried happy tears for the first time in 4 years
I couldn't hold back the tears...of Joy or relief or both 🙏💙😁
🙋♀️
Oh, I missed this. All the jokes but none of the existential dread.
FOR REAL
I feel normal again !!!
Yes, I had to stop watching the last year. It was simply too frightening.
@Other Aion
Firsteur
Yes, exactly this! It's so refreshing to just feel good during a late show... Something I didn't realize we lost in the past 4 years.
I love that Stephen gets such a kick out of making his wife laugh.
It’s so sweet 🥰
Its so beautiful
🥺🤗🥰 it's so pure!
That's love right there.
Makes me smile everytime we hear her laughing at him and he smiles a bit more. Love it
I feel like I just got out of a relationship with Ted Bundy and somehow avoided getting killed...just relief
That sounds about right. It wasn't a surprise when it was reported this week that Trump had left NO PLAN whatsoever behind for COVID and for vaccine distribution - he doesn't care who he hurts, who gets sick, or who dies. Thank God Trump is gone.
Our long collective nightmare is over!!
The nightmare is just starting
@@margaretwilliams7658 Thank God for that!
@@ronrico4922 Obviously we need to be careful and plan for the worst, but I don't think Trump is coming back. Very slim chance, thankfully.
This morning at my work in Paris: France- Europe: everyone where talking about the new president and not at least about the new vice- president: we loved the inauguration, we are so happy that your vice is a woman and of color and we feel optimism with this new cabinet ! Come on America, united again and know Europe is ready to cheer and root for you all the way!!!!!!
Yes and in the UK, ALL me friends {even the postman} was overjoyed, fantastic to know that cretin is gone and good people are back in power

@@billuk1413 😂😂😂

It's still happening.
Hurricane Trump has finally abated. Thanks be to God!
Today's speech was a victory for grammar and literacy.
Grammar has a leftist agenda
@Tay Woode is that all you have to say that you just copy and paste to each comment? No other vocabulary? Or you just bored? What's wrong?
@Tay Woode Well, at least he can still read; still better than Trump. Not only can he read; Biden actually understands the words that are coming out of his mouth.
@Tay Woode That’s rich . . . it would take days and days for me to research all the phrases Trump has repeated “the election was rigged” “the greatest witch hunt” “like no one has ever seen before” “nobody knew” “can I be honest” (by the way, the answer is no) Do you need more?
@Reverend Mr Black Your mom OK?
I didn't wake up with a headache, in fact woke up smiling. And actually got a good nights sleep. Not angry anymore, feeling good.
Don't worry, they'll feed you something else to hate soon✌🇺🇸
Night before the inauguration, I had nightmares one after the other, including dreams about demons, fire demons, ghosts, and fire-ghosts.
Biden got sworn in and boom! No nightmares
R.I.P to those 400,000+ who didn’t survive trump administration my prayer 🙏🏽 goes out to their families and love ones.
What is even worse when you get covid.. Is that you lose your sense of smell and taste.. Food is the one of the joys of living, and losing taste makes the world so bland..
And the deaths will stop now that the pdf file is inaugurated?
Covid double the u.s troop war deaths during ww2. By 200 k . That says a lot.
@Pipe Dreamer yes, Trump personally killed 400k people 😂
@Pipe Dreamer where did the virus come from? And why is the whole world infected? And why didn’t the country that is originated from stop flights leaving the country? Just a few things to think about since you are not so slow😂😂😂😂😂😂
Y'all, I'm finally proud to be a US citizen.
👍
Hopefully it can stay that way. Still ashamed of congress and likely always will be the way things are going.
I’m happy for you, America. A dark cloud has lifted.
I watched Europe's response and they are happy as f, that trump is gone
@@joannajamerson35 I bet. they do not have to pay for anything anymore.
I'm not exactly sure the Dark Cloud is gone, just because Trump is out of office doesn't mean the underlying issues aren't still there. We are in for an interesting time.....
@@joannajamerson35 we are. I don’t know anyone who approved of T****. Well, there was this one guy. I discovered he was a racist so we don’t talk anymore. All the others hated T*** and were incredulous that America allowed him to come to power in the first place. The U.S. can now resume normal relations with the World without being seen as some poor, sad joke.
@@zippidisx2749 Yeah it's all about the money, I think you're still having Trumper side effects. Trust me, overseas millions of people are happy the chronical lies disease is over. Sadly Trumpism is still all over the place just like cancer is, but at least there is hope for humanity.
Remember, Stephen, Sauron cannot be totally destroyed. His spirit will fester in dark corners waiting for the day when he can come forth again in strength, and we must therefore be ever vigilant.
kay so.. what is the ring in this situation then? somebody volunteering?
You have my sword!
Fun fact: Today is the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century.

Everyone behind the camera was laughing a lot more and with a lot more joy today. you can feel how relieved everyone is that Biden is President
Stephen was just radiating JOY as many of us were today! 😁😁😁
@Tay Woode oh BOY are you in the wrong video right now 😂
These awkward moments when you're at a cocktail party and out of nowhere Jack tells a story how he grabbed someone by the p****. And after a few seconds of silence your brain just jumps to laughter to release the tension. That kind of laughter.
@Tay Woode 6 day old troll account = go away.
I couldn’t find a word for what I was feeling and I guess the best one is: an enormous relief! Thank God ❤️💥
I am crying and laughing at the same time so passionate for my country.! GOD bless AMERICA 🇺🇸!!!
hahahahah you really make me laugh - no one has ever seen god in portland nor in seattle .... ohh such emotions .... i guess your eyes and ears are closed - america has to be blessed by the people
Jokes about a decent man, that is NOT trying to satisfy his ego and burn the world down in the process. What a glorious day!
And a decent man who would probably be laughing right along with us, if he weren't so busy doing his job, rather than inciting his twitter followers to attack the person telling the jokes.
Damn, I'd almost forgotten what that feels like.

@@RhodianColossus It''s because you're sick.
@@smashpoundx8643 Nope, it’s a pretty good analysis of the situation. US politics/society is a mess and Biden is our best hope to get things fixed. But he’s a professional politician, not a saint.

@@Desimickymouse And the kids the 45th aka " the alternative winner" imprisoned in camps and separated from their parents?
Yeah how about we all focus on the fact that now America at least has a chance to make things better in the future under the Biden administration. Time to move on.
Look, I don't even believe in souls, but I absolutely agree, because the sentiment is what counts.
Joe's a million times more decent, empathetic, capable, reasonable, and so many other things that have been lacking from you know who.
And yes, Oprah, atheists can feel AWE, goddammit! I sure felt it yesterday, and I felt more patriotic yesterday than I have in my whole 42 years.

When Biden quietly got on with signing orders without performing for the camera I cried. A qualified grown up is back in charge. Oh the relief around the world.
@Reverend Mr Black it doesn’t matter how much you try to belittle him or his highly qualified wife, you still just sounds like a lunatic screaming in the dark. Accept reality. It is nowhere near as awful as the world you and the Trumptons are trying to create. Try discussing policy, vision, define what an American is. See if you can put a sentence together without trashing someone. Or not. Carry on screaming with an absolute lack of reverence for anything decent. You no longer have the ear of the president so it doesn’t matter.
ohh such a moving thing - so modest - a spineless person ready to be admitted in a home for the elderly - are you joking ?? do you see??
