He is but so would most when following Trump.

I like Biden though.

A good speaker I agree but surely both parties in America should pick a younger candidate. Surely people of this age should be enjoying a well earned retirement?

The voters pick the candidate, not the parties. Clearly the American people trend towards old geezers.

He is. Mind you, compared to Trump, Keith Harris’ Orville would come over well.

Thank goodness Donald has gone.

You would think, but this is where we are and so far he's saying the right things, with conviction but non-inflammatory.

I really hope he can see through his term, but of course age is not on his side.

More importantly, let's hope his appointment makes way for common sense and common decency.

Do we need this nonsense on for hours on UK tv? On all channels. We don't usually get all that clap trap, just a mention on the main news about it. The tv companies are only there hoping for some unrest to report. Bunch of chancers.

Although I get your point, I think following Trump means he has entered into leading a far more polarised country than I can recall and for a very long time. I think that actually makes his job more difficult but he appears speaking with the wisdom needed. He has recognised that talk is cheap and it is action that matters. How to unite such a divided people and lead in justice and fairness is the question.

It is a question for whoever leads here too. Johnson certainly hasn't brought any semblance of greater unity. We are probably less polarised than the US but not a lot less.

Do you really believe yourself?

And if you do, feel free to change channels or even turn your TV off and refrain from commenting on threads about it.

Or of course, it could be that you are doing exactly what you are accusing the media of doing. Not sure where you expect the unrest to come from, though.

Jimmy Carter is still chugging along at 96! Although too frail and ill to attend apparently.

What else is on? The only thing it’s disrupting is wall to wall 24/7 covid gloom so let it be I say.

Of course, you could just turn it off too.

Course they are. They don't usually give a stuff about this American president cr@p. It's never usually covered like this. They are hoping for a story. Because let's face it, Biden isn't a story.

Nice use of chiasmus, but recycled from a previous speech I think.

Covid and Trump is all we have heard for months. God knows what the BBC would have to put on if it wasn't for all this.

I think that's the quote the loonies will latch onto, thinking it's code for strong arming the nation into communist atheism.

You are right. Biden is not a story. That is why you are not watching and not commenting.

It is almost like you have too little awareness of yourself to realise.

He took the oath at 11:48, and spent the entire speech kicking trumpy-wumpy.

Excellent use of the time.

On the other hand, for difficult times, including much division, someone of Biden's vast political experience could perhaps do a better job than another with the energy of youth but less practical understanding, including of cross-party work.

You are wrong. Previous US inaugurations have received the same coverage on UK TV.
