Post by Joe Biden: Apocalypse, television and poetry to start a new era | US Elections

Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the other 81 million people in the state are celebrating much of this year. The realization of a dream that Biden has been ambitious for for more than 30 years. Go to history, in Harris’ case, as the first woman to run for vice president. And all of them, the end of a pesadilla of four years. Pero la gravity del moment que atraviesa el país, en mido de una verschriklike pandemia y bajo la amenaza del terrorismo de extremema derecha, despojó a la celebración de las menigte que traditionally la acompañan. In his place, a sea of ​​banners covering the monument explained that the Capitol had opened, 10 minutes before the media, arriving 600 seconds from the presidency to his predecessor, Joe Biden juror as 46th President of the United States.

In recent years, the political machinery of the state, in particular the Democrat, has been transformed into one more solvent television producer. According to the general statement that the national convention of the party in the vernacular took place, the investor ceremony will be held in a cathodic spectacle to transmit the message of who is from this Wednesday the President Biden. The spectacle must continue, reaching the maximum of show business. And in the middle of the duel and the pregnancy of the moment, spectacular spectacle, sobriety and harmony, in harmony with the values ​​that treat the Administration, through spectacle to the end and to the head.

Tenia algo of apocalyptic ese Washington vacio amaneció frío et soleado. Tracks without traffic, with military checkpoints each by manzanas. Metallic wheels, oncoming trucks, blocking blocks closing the pass. Members of the secret service, francotiradors in the azoteas, and 25,000 soldiers, five times more than the countries have been deployed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria.

Salpicados por ciudad, entre equidos de periodistas que deambulaban de un lugar a otro, caminaban unos pocos ciudadanos ciudadanos en busca de la Experiencecia de un histori momento. “Keep in mind that there is no great celebration, given the circumcisions, but depending on each individual who will live this occasion personally. For me, from now on, it’s a moment of celebration. Although it is quite escalating to see the capital of the country in this state. “When Trump appeared on television, he dedicated a piece of paper and said goodbye,” assured Talia Pfeffer, a 21-year-old student, that she was guarding a checkpoint that, if it were to run frankly, would not allow Lady Gaga to be su suño, pero sí acercarse a la avenida de Pensilvania.

In one of the extremes of this avenue, on the escalation of the Capitol, where tenderness takes place the ceremony of investing, the illustrated guests empezaban to read. All congratulations to President Jimmy Carter, who did not respond to medical advice, to Donald Trump, who declined the invitation to hold a centenary tradition. The cordiality between all of the unqualified old men of the Casa Blanca offers hachía preguntarse cómo encajará Trump en ese selecto klub aan.

The proletariat of the investor underwrites one of the fractions of the president that promises “drain the cienaga”. This is where the old regression of Washington came from. Veteran Politicians, Respect in Discrepancy. Do not hide the masks and the limited physical contact powder can eclipse the team between rivals, the radar of the public life are four years and that the protagonists, including the salient vice president Mike Pence, parishioner add.

First time, the Biden abandon Blair House, the guest residence next to the White House where the night passes, to attend the mass. Camino to convert to the second Catholic president of history, Biden salió pasadas las 8.45 (Washington hour), respecting the forward of the same president that no quiso acudir to su jura, just when Trump had finished talking about the Andrews base on embarrassment for the last time in the Air Force One rumbo ‘n Florida. Biden is leading the way and listening to Trump and marching to the rhythm of My way with the voice of Sinatra. Lo sagrado y lo profano. The contrast, supported by the echo that accompanies Biden’s readings of the Congress’s, Republican Mitch McConnell and Democrat Nancy Pelosi, was served by the first hour. ‘N Trump only accompanies his family.

In the Capitol’s escalator, Biden’s senator and exrival in the primary Amy Klobuchar master master of ceremonies. Apenas late 20 seconds to mention the dramatic asalto of the passage day 6 to edification that tenia his spaldas. “We are living the way in which our democracy is alive”, dijo.

From now on, Empezaron will float in the airy little heads of snow. “Of all the things that podiums will hope for today, the snow will not be one of them”, bromeo Roy Blunt, president of the Senado Committee of the Fastes and the only republican who has the palabra, except for the star of the country Garth Brooks, an emotional singer Incredible grace dressed in vacant pants.

More spectacular is the style of the protagonists of the other musical moments. An Emotional Lady Gaga, with a red and painted monumental monument to the Statue of Liberty, sang the national anthem. And Jennifer Lopez, diva’s Latin suit of white supremacist, arranged by Woody Guthrie, the guitar maker found “mataba fascistas”. Interpret a bellísima This country is your country, to the one who added one verse in Spanish claiming “libertad y justicia para todos”.

Pero his soberbias interventions palidecieron en buena medida ante sobrecogedora lecture de quien se convertió en starr de la ceremony, la joven poet Amanda Gorman, afroamericana de 23 años, que articulo, en unos versos dynamos y potorosos of hope about what President Biden wants to do orbit the work that starts this Wednesday. “We are our miracles, we do not want to be interposed between us,” recited Gorman, “we do not know what happens to us.”
