On January 20, 2025, Donald J. Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States during a ceremony held in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington, D.C. Due to low temperatures, the event was moved indoors, making it the first indoor inauguration since 1985.
The ceremony was attended by prominent figures, including former Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush, as well as tech leaders such as Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. Outgoing President Joe Biden participated in the traditional peaceful transfer of power, meeting with Trump at the White House prior to the ceremony.
After taking the oath of office, Trump delivered an inaugural address focused on “restoring confidence” in the United States, reiterating his commitment to border security policies and economic revitalization. It is expected that his initial executive actions will address energy production and immigration.
