Capitol Rotunda Oath for Donald Trump - Trump47

BBC News: Reports that the 47th President, Donald Trump will be inaugurated in the Capital Rotunda, due to the expected Cold weather on the day.

Lets Get Real:

The Donald will not be happy, he likes big crowds, the Inaugural will follow the format of Reagan's Inaugural in 1985.  Lets hope Trump47 is half as good as Reagan, the Gipper was a great President,  specially in the 2nd term, ending the Cold War in 1986, there was Iran - Contra, nobody went to jail or was impeached, as Lady Thatcher said in 2004, won the Cold  war without firing a shot, this lead to Russia leaving Afghanistan and lead to the downfall of the USSR. We shall see what happens with Trump.

Democrat Majority Leadèr told Biden to Leave race - Trump47

CNN: Reports that the Democratic Majority Leader, Chuck Shumer told President Biden to leave the Presidential race after his disastrous ďebate performance against Trump47.

Lets Get Real:

One only had to see the reaction of CNN panel after the debate, Biden was finished, it was not a politican that started the ball rolling, it was the stalwart Democratic actor George Cloony who had been at a Biden fundraiser that raised over 30 million dollars who said that Biden should leave the race, in this he was followed by former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, both Schumer and Pelosi were afraid that Biden would lose the White House, House and the Senate.  In the end VP Harris lost All three, if Biden had not run, there is chance that Trump would not have won.  History would have been kinder to Biden, but that is What If? of history.   On Monday Trump becomes the 47th President of the USA.

President Biden's Farwell Address to the Nation - For the History Books

 


Lets Get Real:

The main themes was the US should be wary of the Super rich in power and that power of unregulated Social Networks to give you false information or information you want to hear! If Biden had not run for a 2nd term, the transfer of power on Monday could have been to a different person, his VP.  This case its to the Trump 47, whatever that will bring.

President Biden TALKS to Israeli PM about ceasefire in Gaza - Trump47

The White House releases readout of telephone call between President Biden and the Israeli PM, they discussed the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

Lets Get Real:

At last a ceasefire in the Israeli - Gaza War, it all started when Hamas invaded Israel on October 7th and killed 1,200 and took many hostsges and took them back to Gaza.   It might have cost Biden the Presidency with his support of Israel, the far left in the Democratic Party never forgave him, but he did the right thing in this case. Lets hope we have peace in the region.


Trump selling out the Ukraine - Trump47

 Guardian: Reports that Trump's nominee for  Secretary of State, Senator Marco Rubio has stated the the Ukraine and Russians have to make concessions to end the War.

Biden's Job Approval at 36% - Trump47

CNN: Reports on a new CNN poll that finds President Biden"s job approval at 36%.

Lets Get Real:

The Biden Approval numbers are in the toilet, not as bad as Jimmy Carter in 1981 and Bush 43 in 2009.  The American people view the Biden Presidency as a failure, the economy in the view of people is bad, groceries cost to much, and the buck does not cover every day costs.  The Ukraine - Russian War is stalled.  Today we have news of a ceasefire between Hamas and Gaza, months to late. The Biden view of his Presidency is to rosy.
