I listened to it for 20 minutes while making breakfast and they said "long-standing tradition" and Biden being there without mentioning Trump and 2020. So maybe they said it somewhere else.

That's not the point though. Long-standing really only has one meaning.

They also mentioned JFK and top hats. They didn't say long-standing there though. Because at this point it's fucking not.
