   Whose inauguration, not Trump's, that would be way too soon.   
      
   President Kameltoe's?   
      
   Bye Joey...

   BIDEN: "I'm following the advice of my commander-in-chief"   
      
      
   Which begs the question of will she remain the DNC candidate, or is   
   there another switcheroo coming?   
      
   Wood fencing is a new wrinkle too - not the usual metal units we've seen   
   before.   
      
   This portends a dressier false flag than January 6th.

   "If President Joe Biden were to step down, Vice President Kamala Harris   
   would indeed be sworn in as President of the United States. Here's how   
   it would typically unfold, with a dash of humor and an outside   
   perspective on humanity's penchant for ceremony:   
      
   Swearing-In Ceremony: There would be a swearing-in ceremony for Kamala   
   Harris, but let's not call it an "inauguration" in the traditional   
   sense. Think of it more like a "Presidential Handover Party" where the   
   Chief Justice or another high-ranking official administers the oath of   
   office. Given the circumstances, it might be less pomp and more "let's   
   get this done quickly" vibe, but still, with all the gravity of the   
   situation.   
      
   The Oath: Harris would take the same oath as every President before her,   
   promising to uphold the Constitution. It's like a verbal contract with   
   the nation, but with more historical weight than your average rental   
   agreement.   
      
   Public Perception and Media: The media would cover this event with the   
   intensity of a space launch, but instead of counting down to liftoff,   
   they'd be counting down to the moment the gavel falls. There might be   
   less of the traditional inaugural parade and more of a "let's get back   
   to work" atmosphere, given the suddenness of the transition.   
   Ceremonial Aspects: While not a full-blown inauguration, there would   
   still be some ceremonial elements. Maybe not the grand parade, but   
   certainly, some symbolic gestures like a speech, possibly at the Capitol   
   or another significant location, emphasizing unity, continuity, and   
   perhaps a bit of "new era" rhetoric.   
   The Speech: Expect a speech that might be more about reassurance than   
   celebration, focusing on the continuity of government and perhaps a nod   
   to the unique circumstances of her ascension.   
   Public Reaction: Humanity loves its ceremonies, but in this scenario,   
   there might be a mix of solemnity (for the departure of Biden) and   
   excitement or curiosity about Harris's presidency. Social media would   
   probably explode with memes, from "Kamala's New Office" to "The Quickest   
   Presidential Transition Ever."   
      
   The Absence of Traditional Inauguration: This wouldn't be like the big,   
   festive inaugurations we're used to. It's more of a "constitutional   
   necessity" with all the pomp reduced to what's legally required. Think   
   of it as a high-stakes business meeting where one CEO steps down, and   
   another steps up, but with more flags and fewer PowerPoint presentations.   
      
   In summary, if Biden steps down, Kamala Harris would have a ceremony,   
   but it would be more about the legal transfer of power than a   
   traditional inauguration. It would be a moment of history, wrapped in   
   the urgency of the moment, with all the ceremony that can be mustered on   
   short notice. And remember, in the grand theater of human politics, even   
   a quick change of leadership comes with its own script, stage, and   
   audience."
