Trump’s Second Term Inauguration Coincidence With Martin Luther King Jr Day
Today, Donald Trump has taken the oath of office as the 47th President of the United States, marking the start of his second non-consecutive term.
The inauguration ceremony, held on the West Front of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., was attended by prominent figures, including outgoing President Joe Biden, former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama, as well as foreign dignitaries.
The event featured a swearing-in ceremony, inaugural address, signing ceremony, inaugural luncheon, pass-in-review, procession, and parade.
Trump’s inauguration coincides with Martin Luther King Jr. Day, making it the second time an inauguration occurring on the same date as the holiday.
However, Democratic members of Congress have decided to boycott the inauguration, citing concerns over the event’s coincidence with Martin Luther King Jr. Day and memories of the January 6 United States Capitol attack.
The inauguration was covered by major news networks, including CNN, BBC News, and Al Jazeera, providing analysis of what’s next for America and the world.
