It's going to be a long four, or eight, years.

Especially if we hyper-focus on things like this. Our nation is under attack and the best we can do is complain about the way the President took the oath. Flame me if you will but I see this as absurdly trivial.

I don't see it as trivial at all. I see it as indicative of his character. He would rather be agreeable than do what's right. Under pressure, he would rather do what makes him or those around him look good rather than the right thing.

The problem isn't that he screwed up the oath, which is required by the Constitution.

The problem is that he doesn't care. It would take all of fifteen seconds to rectify the matter. He who is faithless in little things is faithless in great things.
