Donald Trump inauguration

Donald Trump will officially be inaugurated as 47th president of the United States on January 20, Monday. Trump will assume the office of the US President for the second time taking over from the incumbent President Joe Biden.

Trump will take the presidential oath of office with Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts in front of the Capitol in Washington DC, on January 20.

JD Vance will also be sworn in as Vice President of the United States on the Inauguration Day. Usually, the Vice President is sworn in before the President.

This year, Trump’s inauguration coincides with Martin Luther King Jr. Day, making it the first time in this century that a president will be sworn in on a federal holiday. Inauguration Day usually falls on January 20 (or 21 if January 20 is on a Sunday), but this overlap has led to unique scheduling.
