TRUMP UNLOADS
While Trump refused to attend Joe Biden’s 2021 inauguration, the departing president was keen to restore tradition by showing his face.
He may well wish he hadn’t bothered, as Trump tore into his record, denouncing what the new Republican president said had been a “betrayal” of Americans by a “radical and corrupt establishment”.
They were apparently getting along fine during the earlier formalities, with Biden unaware that his successor was about to eviscerate his legacy.
But the veteran Democrat could only smile in disbelief – and occasionally grimace – while his vice president Kamala Harris looked stony-faced, as Trump launched broadside after broadside.
“From this moment on, America’s decline is over,” Trump declared.
