The Returns of Trump to White House as 47th President of the United States

Donald Trump's second inauguration as the 47th President of the United States is taking place today, January 20, 2025, at the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.. This marks the 60th U.S. presidential inauguration and the second non-consecutive re-inauguration for a U.S. president.

The event will include a swearing-in ceremony, a signing ceremony, an inaugural luncheon, a pass-in-review, a procession, and a parade. Due to expected freezing temperatures and high winds, the ceremony will be held inside the United States Capitol rotunda.

Several notable figures are attending the inauguration, including outgoing President Joe Biden, former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama, as well as foreign leaders like Chinese Vice President Han Zheng and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

However, some Democrats have decided to boycott the inauguration, citing various reasons, including the event coinciding with Martin Luther King Jr. Day events and memories from the January 6 United States Capitol attack.
