Inauguration: Trump Takes Oath as 47th President

--:--

Donald Trump has been sworn in as the 47th president of the United States, returning to the White House after overcoming four criminal indictments and two assassination attempts in one of the most remarkable political comebacks in U.S. history. The 78-year-old Trump raised his right hand and took the oath of office using a Bible his mother gave him in 1955 that was stacked on a second Bible used by President Abraham Lincoln for his 1861 swearing-in. JD Vance was sworn in as vice president before Trump. We get some analysis from Director at RiskRecon and former Diplomat, Dr Kingsley Makhubela.
