Really, there was, an orange piece of crud, but tears washed it away. Think of how much this day must mean to Joe! Maybe even more than it means to us, if that's possible.

It's been quite a morning. I feel so much better now - with Joe Biden in the driver's seat.

And frankly, I LOVED how the coverage all morning has been Biden/Harris-focused. We all know trump fancied some flourishes for himself both leaving Joint Base Andrews AND returning to Florida. Whatever there was, we did not see, and it was not shown. NICE!

And knowing trump as we all do by now, that fact probably infuriates the donald! And he can just go harrumphing himself off into the sunset (and hopefully, to JAIL!).

I too have longed for this day. I've been a fan of DU as well as a member for awhile, but have only begun to join in the conversation a week ago. Can I ask us all to consider that there might be appropriate? and inappropriate used of the "F" word? This use is particularly offensive to me. As a victim of childhood rape, it's like verbal rape. As a believer, hearing it in this context is not a thank you to God at all.
Words matter.

Nice to have some class and decorum back in the White House. Great to have someone that we can all have our children and grandchildren aspire to become.

I thought "Who on DU would even write a sentence like that, for God's sake?"

The truth, obviously, was obvious. A lot of obvious going on.

when Vice President gave President Obama a hug and said (perhaps a "bit" too loud with an open mic too close), "This is a big f*ing deal!"
I was wondering as President Biden was leaving and hugged President Obama if one of them didn't repeat it!
