Trump Sworn in as 47th President, Promises Major Changes

Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States, marking his return to power with a combative address that declared the beginning of a 'golden age of America.' He emphasized a policy agenda focused on reversing Biden-era policies, pledging to tackle immigration, the economy, and justice, while labeling the day as 'Liberation Day.' Trump faced significant challenges during his path back to the presidency, including legal prosecutions and assassination attempts, which he framed as part of a divine mission to restore American greatness. His inaugural ceremony, held indoors due to frigid temperatures, was attended by prominent figures from business and politics, although some donors were relegated to overflow rooms. The speech also contained nostalgic references to 19th-century imperialism, including plans to revert the name of Denali to Mount McKinley. Trump's return to office is seen as both a historic moment and a political rebuke to the established order, with substantial implications for national policy.
