Donald Trump's Second Inauguration Highlights
Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States at the Capitol Rotunda, making history as the oldest person to hold the office at 78. His inauguration speech revealed a stark contrast to his previous address, as he refrained from using the term 'American carnage' but blamed prior administrations for the country's issues. He proclaimed a new era of prosperity and respect for America, asserting that the decline was over and vowing to reverse the alleged betrayals of the past. Amid his lofty promises, he attempted to convey an immediate sense of change that some saw as disingenuous given the lack of tangible plans outlined during the speech.
