really a mix of emotions i mean on the one hand to this day is historic and it needs to be celebre torrie and there are all sorts of norms and traditions that are really important for for making this the poignant moment that it is on the other hand you know it's we've never seen one like this before in our lifetimes there is no crowd here the last inauguration i was at was 12 years ago and there were literally millions of people crowded around this mall and now where there used to be revelers there are national guard troops and armed guards what's your memories of that it's 12 years ago that was about this it was obama's 1st inauguration in 2009 well the last one i was having was on it and it was intense it was there was lots of emotion in the crowd at the historic nature of the 1st african-american president being inaugurated and just so much positivity. and it's just such a contrast from what we have today yeah in fact looking at that and just thinking that amazing shot just 2 weeks ago it was was overrun with people. do you think joe biden of us this is some of my other guests as well
