Just Aaron Sorkin pablum, more or less. Some shoutouts to systemic racism but mostly just a lot of "c'mon man, we can disagree without going to war."
Like that scene in The Wire with the security guard--you want it to be one way, but it's the other.

Did he take the oath prior to his speech?
I looked it up, and it was supposed to start at noon, but when I turned it on, he was already speaking.

Is this a poem? It sounds more like a speech.
