Due to the extremely low temperatures predicted for the nation’s capital, President-elect Donald Trump declared on Friday that his inauguration would now take place indoors.
Because of the extremely chilly weather, Trump said on Truth Social, “I have ordered the Inauguration Address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985.”
“On Monday, we will open Capital One Arena to host the Presidential Parade and to watch this historic occasion LIVE. After I’m sworn in, I’ll be at Capital One to join the crowd,” Trump continued.
Earlier on Friday, CNN reported that preparations were in progress for the inauguration of Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance in the Rotunda.
