President Donald Trump left the White House for the final time aboard Marine One on Wednesday, and the nation breathed a sigh of relief.
Many Americans reacted as if they'd awoken from a nightmare, while others celebrated or expressed disgust at all that's come since Jan. 20, 2017.
It's happening - I just saw the helicopter. Thank God. #TrumpsLastDay

A striking image: The only people gathered on the South Lawn to witness Trump's departure are press -- gathered to the left of the red carpet. The area to the right -- typically reserved for staffers and supporters -- is completely empty. pic.twitter.com/HIpbUGgVmw
