LIVE: Inauguration of Donald J. Trump, 47th President of the United States

That will wrap up our live blogging on this historic day. We want to thank all of our readers, and especially our VIP members! We had a blast today celebrating Morning In America 2.0, and now we’re all going to get to work on delivering it. 

Okay. I have to batten down the hatches for snowmageddon AND find enough Maalox to get major dad through this football game. 

Thank YOU all for being here with us and sharing a day we thought we might never see.

God bless America and LFG!

I predicted it would be unanimous. And that Dems would want a roll call vote to show that they supported a Trump nominee.

Trump ended this at the perfect time for me to start.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS. Merrick Garland's DOJ was particularly vile on these things.

Well. THAT was fun.

O'Donnell says it's a remarkable moment that Trump 'escaped' prosecution.

I thought this vile chick was being fired

The lady in red has a story:

Her husband abandoned her and the family. She struggled to make ends meet. She battled drug addiction for years. But she didn't give up.

Today, she watched her 40 year old son become the Vice President of the United States.
