Demonstration of thousands of people against Trump’s inauguration

According to Isna, several thousand people gathered in Washington on Saturday to protest Trump’s inauguration with pink hats and distinctive billboards, signaling a larger demonstration against his first inauguration in 2017.

Thousands of protesters gathered in light rain to rally against Trump in Franklin Park, one of the three starting locations for the “People’s March” that will pass through downtown Washington, according to Reuters.

Other protesters gathered in two other parks near the White House, with one group focusing on democracy and immigration and the other on local Washington issues.

According to the British News agency, protests against Trump’s inauguration are much less than in 2017. Reuters identified the reason for this issue as Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris, the vice president of the United States in the presidential elections of this country.

These protests are while earlier, Trump announced that he will hold his inauguration ceremony inside the Congress building, referring to the very cold weather that can be dangerous for his supporters and security personnel.

On Friday, Trump wrote in a post on his Social Truth platform: January 20 can’t come this fast! It is my duty to protect the people of our country, but before we begin, we must think about the inauguration itself.

Pointing to the “Arctic blast” sweeping the United States and Monday’s weather forecast in Washington, Trump argued for extreme cold and wind chills that would create dangerous conditions for “hundreds of thousands of supporters and for many of people who will be out for hours as well as police and police dogs and horses.

With that in mind, the president-elect said, the inaugural address, prayers and other ceremonies will be held inside the Capitol, just as President Ronald Reagan did in 1985 because of the cold. It will be a very beautiful experience for everyone and especially for the big TV audience!

Trump has continued: In any case, if you decide to come, wear warm clothes!

For most of US history, presidents who won elections in early November had to wait until March 4 of the following year to be sworn in. The 20th Amendment, passed in 1933, moved the inauguration date to January 20. The ceremony is traditionally attended by members of Congress, US Supreme Court justices, former presidents and their spouses, along with foreign ambassadors and any special guests invited by the new US leader. A few Americans who receive special tickets through members of Congress are allowed into a designated area on the Capitol grounds to watch the inauguration, while the general public can gather on the National Mall, where the ceremony is usually broadcast on big screens. .

Joe Biden’s 2021 inauguration was attended by tens of thousands of National Guard troops around the Capitol, and no members of the public were allowed to attend, as the administration feared there was a risk of riots due to the actions of Trump supporters.
