Poor old Biden. I really think the people who put him through this over the past year should be charged with elder abuse.
He really doesn't know what's going on. The government didn't send him a plane to come over to DC so he had to get his own flight. No mass of Biden supporters cheering him on (and please no COVID excuse because it hasn't stopped Trump supporters). Trump went to Florida taking the nuclear football (i.e. the codes with him), so it wasn't passed on to Biden. The Pentagon refuses to cooperate with his team and give them information about ongoing operations. DC is literally a prison and is still in military lock-down. No flag flying over the Whitehouse which is unprecedented.
Why are they putting Biden through this humiliation?!
This ain't over folks. Get your popcorn.
So much stupidity in just one post.
The government didn't send him a plane to come over to DC so he had to get his own flight.
Trump didn't send him a plane. It is, usually, a courtesy extended by the outgoing President to his successor. Oddly enough, 45 wasn't big on courtesy.
No mass of Biden supporters cheering him on (and please no COVID excuse because it hasn't stopped Trump supporters).
Nope and the stupidity of Trump supporters flocking to large events, many of them not wearing masks, isn't lost on medics, scientists nor anybody else with a reading and comprehension age of over 16, Actually, the science of wearing masks and social distancing isn't that complicated at all so, perhaps, 12.
Trump went to Florida taking the nuclear football (i.e. the codes with him), so it wasn't passed on to Biden.
Traditionally, you know, on those occasions where the outgoing President has the decency* to attend his successor's inauguration, the officer carrying the football is stood behind the podium, usually hidden by a pillar. Next to him is he office who will receive the football. At precisely 12pm the exchange is made and it is never publicly seen. The 'football' itself is not deactivated (the suitcase contains files and a secure comms system, no big red buttons) however the 'biscuit' (the card with the codes) is deactivated and the new one activated.
In this instance a military aide will accompany Trump to Florida with one of the footballs and that Trump will retain authority to launch a nuclear strike until 11:59:59 a.m. Wednesday. Trump's being physically out of Washington will not affect his launch authority or access to the football until noon. (There are multiple footballs that allow a president to launch a military strike while traveling.)
Another military aide with a second nuclear football will hand over the authority to Biden once he is sworn in, the official said, and the military aide with Trump will bring the football back to Washington.
The Pentagon refuses to cooperate with his team and give them information about ongoing operations.
Like a stopped clock, you are right. Disgraceful that civil servants should obstruct the will of the people. Their job is not to like it.
DC is literally a prison and is still in military lock-down.
Can you think of any reason, any reason at all, that the National Guard was brought in for inauguration day?
No flag flying over the Whitehouse which is unprecedented.
False. Utterly, demonstrably and proven false.
Before President Joe Biden's inauguration, social media users shared a false claim that there was no flag flying over the White House -- suggesting it was a sign that the military had taken control of the government. In fact, the flag was flying above the White House on Jan. 20, and Biden is...

It is really tempting just to call you a cock and be done with it but it is, infinitely, more satisfying to prove you wrong with facts rather than conjecture and conspiracy theory.
