Breaking: Trump sworn in as 47th US President

414

In a dramatic return to power on Monday, Donald Trump took the oath of office as the 47th President of the United States in a historic ceremony at the Capitol.

Amid cheers and a sea of American flags, Trump vowed to “preserve, protect, and defend” the Constitution, signalling the start of his second term.

This moment marks a rare feat in U.S. history—the first time since the 1890s that a president, once defeated at the ballot box, has staged a stunning comeback to reclaim the presidency.

Cannon were fired to salute the moment, while Hail to the Chief plays.

Trump was seen celebrating with his family and Vice-President JD Vance.

Then, Battle Hymn of the Republic was performed.
