President-elect Donald Trump will get sworn in today for his second term in the White House.
Now, he's a president who has proved unconventional. At a rally last night, he promised quite a show on his first day in office.
Oh, you're going to have a lot of fun watching television.
But his inauguration will be a little pared down. It had to be moved into the rotunda because of the below-freezing weather in Washington, D.C., and the hundreds of thousands of people who showed up to see him in person will have to squeeze into the Capital One arena instead.
Danielle Kurtzleben is covering the inauguration. That includes Trump's pre-inaugural rally yesterday. So, Danielle, yeah, I mean, the high today is supposed to be, what, 25, 26 at most? Yeah. So can't blame them for what they're doing. Can you tell us more about what to expect today?
Yeah, well, it's a full day of activities, and I'll mention just some of them. Following a service at St. John's Church, which is right next to the White House, the Bidens welcome the Trumps to the White House. And then midday, there's that official swearing-in ceremony. And again, like you said, it's in the Capitol because it's chilly outside today here in Washington. Many supporters, however, will be watching that live stream in Capitol One Arena downtown, again, because of the cold. Then after that, Trump has a ceremony midday that could involve signing executive orders. And then in the afternoon, the inaugural parade has also been moved to the arena, which is where last night's rally was also held.
So all that time spent cheering in an arena, it's really going to maybe fittingly feel like a lot of time at a traditional Trump rally.
Yeah, Trump previewed some of those day one actions during that rally last night at the Capital One Arena. What else did he say that stood out to you?
Well, there is very much this pervasive feeling that the underdogs had won. That's definitely the story that a lot of speakers told, at least. It was celebratory, but also in very Trumpian fashion, there was a lot of focus on how the MAGA movement has a lot of enemies, as they said, and needs to keep fighting them.
