Reactions to Joe Biden being sworn in as president varied wildly depending on one's geographic location and position on the political spectrum, but the fact is, tens of millions of Americans were downright thrilled to see Donnie pack his bags.
We will be back in some form... have a good life.
These were among the final words Donald Trump said on the morning of January 20, about four hours prior to Joe Biden getting sworn in as the 46th President of the United States.
You would have to be gullible, have no respect for right and wrong, and be a self-aggrandizing fool to want to see Joe Exotic go free.

Some might say this is an evergreen statement, but it applies more than ever at the moment.
At this point, the coronavirus pandemic has been going on for so long that it's hard to remember what life was like at the beginning of this mess.

The zoo owner/country singer-turned-Netflix star has been a guest of our federal correctional system since 2018, which means he entirely missed out on the global obsession with Tiger King that spread like wildfire back in March.
You'd think that with Joe Exotic in prison and the world having finally moved on from attempting to solve the mystery of who killed Carole Baskin's husband, the drama of Tiger King would finally be at an end.
But if you've ever met anyone like the man-children who made the Netflix docu-series such a hit, you know they spend their entire lives wrapped up in petty squabbles and courting legal troubles until they eventually drive their ATVs off a ravine, and the coroner finds a couple gallons of Busch Light sloshing around in their guts.
We learned this week that there's a lot more Tiger King on the way.
In addition to a scripted drama series starring Nicolas Cage, the Netflix docu-drama has inspired a sequel created by the same filmmakers.
Well, we all knew this was coming.
As unnecessary as it might be, given the fact what made Tiger King so great is that it's the sort of story you just can't make up, the saga of Joe Exotic will now be given the Hollywood treatment.

If you're one of the tens of millions of viewers who recently got sucked into the bizarre world of Tiger King, you might think you know the whole story of Joe Exotic and his menagerie of rivals and co-conspirators.

By now, you've almost certainly heard about the Netflix phenomenon that is Tiger King.
And unless you're one of those weirdos who's spending their quarantine pursuing a new hobby or re-connecting with family, there's a good chance you've watched the entire thing six or seven times and launched your own cold case investigation into the disappearance of Carole Baskin's husband.
We don't need to tell you that we're living through one of the most bonkers times in American history.
