In a historic ceremony, Donald Trump will be sworn in today as the 47th President of the United States, marking the beginning of his second non-consecutive term in office. The inauguration, which takes place on the West Front of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., will be attended by dignitaries, politicians, and other prominent figures.
The ceremony will include a swearing-in ceremony, where Trump will take the oath of office, followed by an inaugural address. The event will also feature a signing ceremony, an inaugural luncheon, a pass-in-review, a procession, and a parade.
Several foreign leaders, including Chinese President Xi Jinping’s representative, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, are expected to attend the inauguration. However, some Democratic members of Congress have announced their decision to boycott the event.
Trump’s inauguration marks a significant milestone in American history, as he becomes the first president to return to office after a non-consecutive term since Grover Cleveland in 1893. The event is expected to draw widespread attention and media coverage, with many eyes fixed on the new administration’s policies and priorities.
