Rachel Maddow looks at how President-elect Joe Biden is planning a smaller, less extravagant inauguration, both for the sake of safety in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic but also out of respect for the pain and crisis many Americans are experiencing. Aired on 12/17/2020.

Biden Pares Down Inauguration Plans To A Size That Befits The Times | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
This is responsible leadership – responding to the prevailing circumstances.
Unlike the man child next door who is so obsessed with crowds to feed his ego.
I don’t know what else to call Trump, but the man is either delusional or so immoral it’s incomprehensible. Most likely both.
@Alvinius Alviniathan Call him anything you want, so long as you don’t call him late for fried chicken.
@QAnon Don or duck since he is a quackanon.
ABSOLUTELY!
@bLoWc16 And a lame one at that!😉
Speaking of inaugurations, whatever happened to all that money t’rump raised for his in 2016? 🤔
Asking for the DC attorney general. 😂🤣
Joe has won nothing yet! The Congress meets on January 6th to certify the election. All we need is one house member and one senator to dispute the results. Then each state places one vote and Trump remains president. Of course all of you know this already since you’re so smart. You cheated, you got caught and Trump and his family is going nowhere.
YOU KNOW
@Janet Neighbors WE ALL KNOW THIS!!
@Lisa Clark And do you know that will delay the confirmation about 5 minutes.😂😉
It went for Obama’s shouvel ready jobs. 🙂
Biden don’t Care about crowd size LOL He cares about people and our Country for change
Absolutely. And he will give Americans, so much more, if they win the senate.
@Mal C so much more taxes sweetie
@The Truth Hurts You! The American people have to make up for all of the taxes your cult leader never paid.
@The Truth Hurts You! NO comparison, honeybuns…to what Trump has done TO the Americans. Now, he’s out to bankrupt America, like he did with his casino !!?? He’s the one, NOT paying any taxes !? He’s the one spending all the taxpayers monies, on himself !!? YEP, NO comparison…..sweet cheeks…
Finally! Someone who doesn’t care about crowd size – size for that matter!
@William Kahley 😂 you just confirmed it even more, you were spreading lies and you got banned SO YOU CREATED ACCOUNT TO SPREAD THE SAME LIES YOU WERE KICKED OUT FROM.
FYI learn the differences of objective and subjective opinions. I guaranteed that anything you posted, the opposite of it is the objective truth.
@William Kahley
You got booted because you lie and propagandize, don’t pretend it’s because you’re some kind of warrior for truth… You’re a liar, and got dealt with like a liar.
@bill hicks oh so your the truth brigade 🤣
@bLoWc16 so? Is that a problem? Lol I made my account a few months ago so what? Lol people can make an account whenever they want you troll lol Biden will make America great again 🤣
@jimbo43 O’hara agree
In fact the smaller the inauguration crowd the better …. it shows Biden cares more for the health of his people than his own ego and signifies the passing of the shallow, myopic, me-first type leadership of the past 4 years.
Oh God, now we will hear trump, until the end of time, saying he got a bigger crowd than Biden. Good call by the way Joe.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 hahaha 😂 I am laughing loud and I CAN SEE IT 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When the amount of covid sick and the deceased are MORE important to you than the amount of people attending one of the most important events of your life, then you have my respect on this President Biden and Vice President Harris.
Hey Donald less tweeting more packing lol.
Mark Johnson. LOL
Just a thought: To those who would have liked to attend the inauguration maybe you can donate money (if you are able) equal to the amount of bus fare/gas money you would have spent to a charity of your choice.
You’re the apotheosis of the strong and independent, powerful and empowered, brave and courageous womxn! It appears that you’ve found your voice and that you’re walking in your resplendently majestic truth. So iconic! A true moral authority! Is it really ok if it’s a charity of my “choice?” That’s very kind of you.
@Ner mu nar
Great idea! Thanks
It’s a necessary Ceremony, but hardly a celebration. Glad he’s doing this. He needs to be the epitome of resolve. Justice is coming, and the GOP needs to cower

We All Know We Would Not Have Heard This Kind Of Decision From What’s His Name…And Miss Out On Having “the biggest crowd, more than any other president”? Not!
2021: small gathering to social distant the swearing in for Biden
1/20/2022: Big party to celebrate T***** gone!!!
Biden is starting on right plan from day one, this is leadership.Trumps 4 years was a $hitshow from before day one
Both do their best….
We all know that Trump is gonna tweet about the crowd size.
Definitely
Nope, his Twitter account will be suspended at 12:01 pm when he is no longer president!
It will still be a bigger audience than what trump had. If not then it will match it.
@Sandy Romero I’m hoping so for sure!
I get the sense Biden would prefer to just take the oath in the hallway and then immediately go into the office and start getting things done.
Yes but… He dare NOT enter WH until it’s sprayed down with disinfectant, right? 😊😉😏
HAHA ! You make me laugh ! He is only awake for 2-4 hours a day !
Like he has for the last half a century… the only thing he is going to get done is finish selling off the rest of the country fleecing every last cent you have… then handing over the keys to China and the UN…
How long does that mean we’ll be hearing Trump’s ramblings on how his inauguration was SO much bigger?
Easy. Don’t listen to T’s stupid comments. They are totally irrevelant.
@Nancy Quon Always trying but patience is wearing thin….
Unheard of, fiscal consideration. At least Biden won’t need to inflate the size of his inauguration.
WE have the technology to televise this, to stream it on multiple platforms, and to keep the country safe.
Good for Biden – at last someone with good sense entering the White House.
im sure the majority of americans dont care how many people are there we just want him in an getting this covid taking care of
Responsible leadership by the President-elect.
This is needed for security as well as covid. Smart, unlike the person who plans a super spreader the same day.
“”BIDEN IS A CARING MAN””
not like egotistical baby trump! !!!!!!
