YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Moments after taking the oath of office, President Donald Trump began his inaugural address to the crowd gathered inside the Capitol Rotunda, saying that “the golden age of America begins right now.”

“During every single day of the Trump administration, I will very simply put America first,” he said.

The inauguration ceremony, including the swearings-in, is taking place indoors this year, a last-minute change to the pomp and circumstance due to extreme cold forecasted for the nation’s capital.

When Trump returns to the White House on Monday, he’s expected to act quickly on his campaign promises and roll back his predecessor’s policies. As his second term begins, his party controls both chambers of Congress and conservative justices have a majority on the Supreme Court. Trump is only the second president to return to office in non-consecutive terms, the only president convicted of a felony and the oldest person to win election to the White House.
