$\"NewsHub\"$ Underground, the Metro hummed \u2014 then ground to a halt for minutes on end. On the surface, bicycle cabs \u2014 many from out of town \u2014 took over as the most reliable means of navigating the streets around the Mall.
And the Deplorables marched in \u2014 in their tens of thousands.
There was a democratic spirit in the air, something like the mood of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland last summer \u2014 the conference that the big politicos skipped, along with the donors and the lobbyists, leaving the \u201clittle people\u201d that are the heart and soul of the Republican Party to enjoy the city for themselves. Hollywood has snubbed this inauguration, as have several dozen House Democrats \u2014 and the Deplorables do not care. More room for them to savor this unique victory.
President-elect Donald Trump often told his supporters they would take their country back on Election Day. On the eve of his inauguration, it seemed they had already begun to take their city back. The White House, shining in the afternoon light on a balmy January day, seemed at peace, with its flag hanging serenely, even though a blizzard of activity was blowing inside. People posed in front of it for photographs with \u201cTRUMP\u201d banners. To the Deplorables, it seemed less forbidding, now.
The sun set below a bank of distant clouds, a hint of rain to come. And just like that, the era of Barack Obama \u2014 a time of \u201cfundamental transformation,\u201d of constant conflict, of victories quickly dissipated \u2014 seemed suddenly over.
In a matter of hours, the sun would rise \u2014 perhaps behind clouds, but rise nonetheless \u2014 and a new president would prepare to take the oath.
The Trump era awaited \u2014 witnessed by the Deplorables, venerating tradition but delighting in defiance.
Let tomorrow begin.
