Boos at the inauguration?

Hilary Clinton was outwardly laughing at some of the ridiculous things he proposed.
Still, the Rotunda speech was better than his mostly(?) unscripted, rambling, rather smug, lie-filled second speech. He's a convicted felon so no surprises.
I sincerely hope his actions do help your country and improve all of your lives. It's a second and highly significant chance to do good; his place in history is already assured, fingers crossed it will read well.

@Renauda Apparently it's a mode of performative communication that plays well with certain significant cultures in the US, and those cultures were represented at the inauguration, at the invitation of Trump. I appreciate that aspect.

Yes, that would explain why I cannot appreciate it. No wonder it seemed quite alien to me.

The renaming stuff is symbolic, and imo a complete waste of time.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

And money.
The cost to rename 9 Confederacy-honoring Army bases has doubled
The Army expects to pay $39 million, said Lt. Gen. Kevin Vereen, Army deputy chief of staff for installations. In 2022, the congressionally-mandated Naming Commission estimated it would cost $21 million to rename the nine Army installations.
