taken in the history being made there but as we get closer every day, every hour it's starting to really sink in and become more real.

I think becsuse this isn't a normal year or transition. In previous times there would have been things like the meetings and photo ops with current presidents and vps.

I think Joe will give her a lot of power, she won't be just attending funerals and other ceremonial things. He trusts her, you can tell when they are on together. I love this woman, long overdue having a woman in power.
