Trump Moves Inauguration Ceremony Indoors Due to Weather
President-elect Donald Trump announced a last-minute shift of his inauguration ceremony indoors at the U.S. Capitol due to dangerously cold weather. The change has caused significant adjustments to security and event logistics, impacting the plans of thousands of supporters. Celebrations kicked off with a reception at Trump’s Virginia golf club and a gathering of Vice President-elect Vance and cabinet members at the National Gallery of Art. Trump is set to participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery before attending a "MAGA Victory" rally at Capital One Arena, now the main venue for supporters to watch the inauguration on a big screen. The event contrasts starkly with protests across the country opposing Trump’s policies.
