President Donald Trump was sworn in for a returning second term in office Monday, heralding a major shift in the US government widely expected to send shockwaves through American society and the world at large.
“I, Donald John Trump do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” Trump said during brief remarks at the US Capitol.

Following the inauguration, the president is slated to depart the Capitol and head to the nearby Capital One Arena, where he will address his supporters during a rally that will also feature a presidential parade. It remains unclear how the parade, which would normally run from the Capitol up Pennsylvania Ave. to the White House, will be featured within the venue.
Trump announced Friday that his inaugural events would move indoors due to frigid temperatures across the capital region.
