In a historical, inspiring comeback, Donald J. Trump has fought against all odds to return to the White House for a second term, after four years of being absent while Democrats took control.
Due to the extreme cold weather, Trump’s inauguration on Monday has been moved to be held inside the U.S. Capitol Rotunda.
The Trumps started the day by attending a service at St. John’s Episcopal Church, which is a tradition for presidents-elect. They then had tea with Joe and Jill Biden at the White House.
Other inaugural ceremonies, including the presidential parade, will be held later Monday afternoon at the Capitol One Arena, which can only hold about 20,000 people.
