Donald Trump lands in Washington DC ahead of inauguration as country readies itself for mass protests. Donald Trump takes to the stage today, when he will be sworn in on the steps of the US Capitol at noon.
The Republican nominee achieved one of the most improbable political victories in modern US history – despite a series of controversies that would easily have destroyed other candidacies, including ‘locker room banter’ about sexual assault, mocking a reporter with disabilities, inciting his supporters to violence and allegations that his campaign pandered to the American far-right.
He has pledged to unite America after his shock election win and now the tough work starts – turning the rhetoric into workable and affordable policies.
In his last speech as president, Obama said: “The peaceful transfer of power from one freely elected president to the next, I committed to President-elect Trump my administration would ensure the smoothest transition, just as President Bush did for me.”
