Remember the previous President's inauguration? The one where American citizens were detained in "Free Speech Zones" a mile away while the motorcade had to speed down the parade route dodging eggs? What a difference eight years makes!

Call me when you get a break!

That footage in the documentary of the motorcade getting pelted with eggs was the most astonishing thing.
There must have been heads rolling at Secret Service after that.
