According to reports, Donald Trump said
something scathing to Joe Biden during his second inauguration.
During their brief greetings, Trump said, “
Shut up, Biden,” in response to Biden’s “Welcome home,”
and then made a joke about how cold it is compared to when they go skiing.
“It’s hello,” was Biden’s straightforward reply, indicating that he intended to go inside.
With his administration swiftly reversing several of Biden’s most important policies,
Trump’s return to office has already sparked controversy.
These include reiterating the U.S. policy that only two genders are recognized
, withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, and resuming oil drilling in the Arctic.
Trump announced the policy change in his inaugural address, claiming that the
U.S. government would only acknowledge male and female genders.
Additionally, he pardoned more than 1,500 participants in the Capitol riot on January 6.
Only after being prodded by a reporter did Trump
find a farewell letter from Biden in the Oval Office when he took office.
