Vice President-elect Mike Pence chose well when he chose Justice Clarence Thomas to swear him into office. Thomas will be the first black Supreme Court Justice to ever swear in a vice president or president. It will be a momentous event and will make civil rights history. The left is going to hate it, which means I’ll love it. They have always hated Justice Clarence Thomas because he is such a conservative and a constitutional originalist.
Though Trump was expected to have Roberts swear him in because that is simply how it is done, Pence was able to choose who he wanted to swear him in and he chose Thomas.
From Western Journalism:
Vice President-elect Mike Pence will be part of history next Friday when he takes the oath of office.
Pence will be sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who will become the first black Supreme Court justice to ever swear in the president or vice president.
The chief justice of the Supreme Court has the duty of administering the oath of office to the incoming president, which means that next Friday, Chief Justice John Roberts will swear in President-elect Donald Trump.
However, the ritual of the inauguration allows the incoming vice president some latitude in who will administer the oath.
