Donald Trump sworn in as the 45th president

                                 

Donald Trump has been sworn in as the 45th president of the United States of America. President Trump renewed his “America First” mantra as it became official. His Vice Mike Pence has also been sworn in.

After taking the Presidential oath, Trump addressed the crowd, promising: “The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer.”
Returning to the theme that won him US ‘rust belt’ states hit by overseas trade, he said: “The wealth of our middle class has been ripped from their homes and redistributed around the world.”
Making clear his belief in protectionism, he told the depleted crowd: “From this day forward, a new vision will govern this land. From this day forward, it will only be America First.”
Trump, who arrived at the Capitol Building on Friday morning to chants of ‘USA! USA! USA!’, spent the morning attending church and meeting with outgoing President Obama as VIPs filled into the stands for the inauguration.  
The Obamas warmly greeted the Trumps on the steps of the White House, bringing a large gift box from Tiffany’s which Melania handed to first lady Michelle.
As the two couples were meeting, the president-elect’s family, former presidents, the Supreme Court justices and Congressman started filing into the stands outside the Capitol Building to see the ceremony - including Trump’s rival Hillary Clinton.
Congratulations to Mr President and his team. God bless America!
