Pence's tie looks purple to me!

CaveMum · 20/01/2021 16:00

Pence has gone with the red tie.

SanFranBear · 20/01/2021 16:00

Well, on the darker side of red Wink

DuncinToffee · 20/01/2021 16:00

ZZTop will your kids watch it at school?

@RedToothBrush

I am intrigued to know what colour tie Pence will wear. Will he stick with his traditional party red?
Well its red, but its not a bright red...
NotaRealLawyer · 20/01/2021 16:01

@RedToothBrush

Purple. Not Red not Blue.

I'm willing to bet its a symbolic statement about it being time to heal America and the red/blue divide.

I think you have it. If so, great decision by all.

Hmm you might be right, the light inside is not great!

RedToothBrush · 20/01/2021 16:01

maggiethecat · 20/01/2021 16:01

virtual hug for you cycling. I genuinely mean that - I remember how it felt 4 years ago.

Did he skip the light fandango ?
NotaRealLawyer · 20/01/2021 16:02

Pence in a red tie!

DuncinToffee · 20/01/2021 16:02

Florida brace yourselves, he has landed

tiredvommachine · 20/01/2021 16:02

I know there are much more important things going on but Michelle's hair looks amazing!

Hatstrategicallydipped · 20/01/2021 16:02

I'm really excited about Biden. I loved Obama too. I never liked either Bush presidents, or Trump, but I think I've liked all other presidents during my lifetime.

@Hatstrategicallydipped

Trump aside, if you were American citizens, would you naturally be a Republican or a Democrat? Or indeed, if you are American - what 'side' are you on? I'd be a strong Democrat I think. Can't say I follow US politics too closely though tbh.
Democrats because they are basically a centrist party despite what conservatives would lead you to believe. I am largely centrist with a developing left wing bias, if that helps.

(The plane has arrived in Florida, he's about to get off).

I actually want to watch this on telly but I just don't think the coverage is as good as CNN online

CaveMum · 20/01/2021 16:03

DO we think the Trumps are holed up inside the plane watching the ceremony on live tv - not planning to exit until just as Biden arrives in the desperate hope the news networks will carry the footage of them rather than that of the President Elect's arrival Grin

DuncinToffee · 20/01/2021 16:03

Blue mask for Pence, tie looks red

Hatstrategicallydipped · 20/01/2021 16:04

What's with the colour fascination?

AfterSchoolWorry · 20/01/2021 16:04

Pence has relief in his eyes.

NotaRealLawyer · 20/01/2021 16:04

Jeez, I never thought I'd be checking out politicians outfits ha ha.

SanFranBear · 20/01/2021 16:04

The BBC keep cutting to Trumps arrival in Florida.. although I suppose they would normally be at the event together but it's annoying me Grin

StatisticallyChallenged · 20/01/2021 16:05

And Trump's landing/arrival hasn't been timed to be distraction at all. Nope. Not a bit of it.

Its definitely a purpley red. I wonder how long his aids were browsing trying to make sure they got the right shade of red.

Likewise I wonder who did the Clinton/Obama/Bush mass purchasing decision.
