Manning contrasted Musk's attire with the tradition of Ronald Reagan, who reportedly never entered the office without a suit jacket. The commentary labels Musk "Elon the Monkey" and suggests his refusal to remove his hat signifies a lack of respect for the presidency and the Constitution.

This marks the first indoor inauguration since Ronald Reagan in 1985, significantly limiting the number of in-person guests to several hundred members of Congress and VIPs. The traditional inaugural parade down Pennsylvania Avenue has been canceled in favor of a celebration at the Capital One Arena.

After the war, the government continued buying milk to prevent the dairy industry's collapse, storing the surplus as cheese in underground caverns. During the Reagan administration, this surplus was distributed to low-income families, leading to the creation of the National Dairy Council to drive private milk consumption.

The hosts recall the Cold War-era "neutron bomb" scares and argue that current media emphasis on "nuclear-capable" missiles is a psychological operation to prepare the public for a war economy. They contend that the ability to put nuclear warheads on small delivery systems has existed for decades, making recent "tests" less revolutionary than reported.

The hosts point out that Trump’s 312 votes are indeed the highest since Reagan’s landslide, and they accuse the network of being "disingenuous" or "stupid" for confusing electoral votes with the "raw" popular vote.

This is contrasted with Ronald Reagan's 1989 farewell address, where he spoke of the "shining city on a hill" and prayed for the nation's leadership.
