Obama did the same thing when he was elected, it's pretty normal.

During parts of the inauguration I was watching, one of the commentators said people have been saying for decades that Jan 20th should be a national holiday.

The notion that Trump was saying his inauguration become a national holiday, is typical leftist sensationalism.

Making Election Day a national holiday seems more logical.

I see the ongoing pattern of leftist sensationalism in many places. Interesting, no. Sad, yes.
