Photos: Donald Trump to be inaugurated as US president

WASHINGTON  — Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president on Monday, taking charge as Republicans assume unified control of Washington and set out to reshape the country’s institutions.

Frigid weather moved Trump’s swearing-in indoors to the Capitol Rotunda, the first such move in 40 years. The inaugural parade was replaced by an event in a downtown arena.

Trump began Monday with a prayer service at St. John’s Episcopal Church. Then he and his wife Melania will be greeted at the executive mansion by President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden for the customary tea. It’s a stark departure from four years ago, when Trump refused to acknowledge Biden’s victory or attend his inauguration.
