Have been waiting for empathy and experience to come to the administration to come to back into leadership in this country.

Um, as we all watched, there's an energy.

There's an excitement.

There's a moving forward again for so many folks who have been waiting for today who have been waiting to send off Trump and to start a new in America, I'll come onto whether they can turn the page.

But Ron, we were talking earlier and catty was making the point about looking at to that election campaign and the amount of people that voted for Donald Trump.

In the end, the Democrats picked right, didn't they?

In terms of Joe Biden, he waas perhaps the only person to bring together a coalition big enough to beat the sitting president.

Good day.

Once again, Matthew.

Yes, I think that's right.

And we reflect and realized that Donald Trump received nearly 74 million votes, which is historic level here in the United States.

But yet, and still Joe Biden was still able to beat him by more than six million votes.

Why?

Because I think Americans wanted to turn the page.

They gave the upstart the opportunity to come in the non politician.

And at the end of it, I think many Americans said, You know what?

We want to return to civility.

We want to return to normalcy.

Hence we see the swearing in of the 46th president, United States in the form of Joe Biden on We're seeing pictures off Joe Biden and Jill on the vice president and her husband as the edge towards those Capitol steps.

We're about a minute or so away from the end of the program.

So a final thought from both of you, Amanda first about how easy or difficult it is to be to turn the page the president elect absolutely clear.

The task is to bring America together again.

Is that a possibility in the near future?

Or is it a generational thing?

It's gonna It's gonna be a journey one step at a time, and I think what you saw today was a realistic view of it starts with everyone coming together in church this morning as a very first step, something we haven't seen in a long time, that kind of bipartisan coming together.

But I think everyone's well aware that this is a journey that we're gonna have to take together.

And it's one step at a time, and today it begins.

Ron Christie A final word, I think, with a divided government in the United States, Senate beings divided as it is, the house beings is divided.

A zit is it's gonna be up to Joe Biden to see whether he can bring the political leadership together to give the American people the leadership that they have been so craving for for so many years.

But at least today is a brand new start.

Well, thanks to both of you were edging to the end of the program here before we join a BBC news special on their absolutely the sent off your picture, the new team, the new president on the new vice president, Onda a Z, they climbed the steps.
