Excited to see whether he’ll live up to the hype.

Hopefully they meet somewhere in the middle.

Nothing ever lives up to the level of hype that got him elected.

Interesting that NYC does their swearing in at New Years. Is this a normal ish part of the big NYC ball drop ceremony? I've never noticed if it is.
