Republican leader took his oath of office under the US Capitol Rotunda as frigid weather forced the ceremony indoors.
Donald Trump has taken the oath of office to become the 47th president of the United States, returning to the White House four years after he left it in defeat.
In his inaugural speech on Monday, Trump, 78, took an aggressive posture, using his podium in the Capitol Rotunda to blast his predecessor, outgoing Democratic President Joe Biden.
He also framed himself as a victim of government “weaponisation”, taking jabs at what he called a “radical and corrupt establishment”.
“My recent election is a mandate to completely and totally reverse a horrible betrayal,” Trump said. “From this moment on, America’s decline is over.”
This was Trump’s second presidency, after serving in the White House from 2017 to 2021.
