What are your expectations of it?
Do you feel any trepidation?
I know I've sometimes been a real cunt about him. I'd say I can't help myself, but of course that's not true, I have a ton of self control and I fear losing it.
My expectation is that he conduct himself with the dignity & respect that office deserves. I don't think that's asking too much.
Obama totally met my expectations. Didn't end any of the wars he promised to end, didn't allow a single Patriot Act provision to expire, didn't shut down Gitmo. Bush in blackface, as far as I'm concerned, and Trump is nowhere near as rotten as Bush and Cheney were. No, he isn't a class act, but the last time we had someone who was was Eisenhower.
