When and where to watch Donald Trump's inauguration as US President
Trump celebrated the eve of his second inauguration on Sunday with a “Make America Great Again Victory Rally” at the Capital One Arena in downtown Washington.
Donald Trump will return to the White House as the new US President on January 20, almost four years after he pledged to return to the US capital in “some form” after the infamous riots of January 2021. The event will also make the Republican the only sitting president to be convicted on charges of felony.
Trump, whose first term lasted from 2017 to 2021, had refused to attend the inauguration of Biden, who defeated him in 2020. He left Washington for Florida ahead of the ceremony, vowing "we will be back in some form."

Trump slams the ‘establishment’
After a four-year hiatus from the capital, Trump celebrated the eve of his second inauguration with a “Make America Great Again Victory Rally” on Sunday at the Capital One Arena in downtown Washington.
Trump's rabble-rousing speech at the rally proved to be suggestive of what to expect from the 78-year-old former president who had accused the Democrats of “stealing” the 2020 mandate.
“Tomorrow at noon, the curtain closes our four long years of American decline, and we begin a brand new day of American strength and prosperity, dignity and pride,” Trump said. “Once and for all, we’re going to end the reign of a failed and corrupt political establishment in Washington,” he added.
