On Monday, January 20, Donald Trump was sworn in for a second term as President in Washington DC, marking a remarkable political comeback after his victory over Kamala Harris in the November election.
At 78 years old, Trump now holds the distinction of being only the second president in history to serve non-consecutive terms, following in the footsteps of Grover Cleveland in the late 19th century. The ceremony, which took place at the Capitol Rotunda due to frigid temperatures, was a return to full pageantry after the subdued inauguration of Joe Biden four years ago during the Covid pandemic and in the aftermath of the Capitol riot by Trump supporters.
Trump, who had been eagerly awaiting his return to the White House, took to his Truth Social platform on Friday to express his excitement for the inauguration, stating, “January 20 cannot come fast enough!” The event was anticipated by both supporters and detractors alike, with all eyes on the incoming administration and what it would mean for the country.
The atmosphere in Washington DC was filled with both anticipation and tension as the nation watched the historic swearing-in ceremony unfold. As Trump officially began his second term as President, the world waited to see what the future held for America under his leadership.
