The Inauguration Ceremony for Trump Was Moved Indoors Due to an Arctic Blast Warning

US President-elect Trump’s inauguration will be held in the Capitol Rotunda due to safety concerns during an Arctic blast warning The president-elect said on social media on Friday that President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony would be held indoors in the Capitol Rotunda due to a frigid weather forecast in the nation’s capital on Monday.

Monday appears to be very chilly, even though Inauguration Day is always frigid. Strong winds and a high of about 20 degrees are predicted, along with a low of six degrees.

Ronald Reagan’s second inauguration was the last time the event was conducted indoors, and that year the procession was also called off, according to NBC News.

Trump declared on his social media site, Truth Social, that “due to extremely cold weather, I have ordered the Inauguration Address, along with prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985.”

The Capitol will be the destination for the numerous dignitaries and guests. For everyone, but especially for the big TV audience, this will be a very lovely event!

“An Arctic blast is sweeping the nation.” He said, “I don’t want to see anyone in any kind of harm or injury.

“The hundreds of thousands of supporters, tens of thousands of law enforcement officers, first responders, police K9s, and even horses will be outside for many hours on the 20th. In any case, if you choose to attend, please wear warm clothing!”

The alteration will deny Trump the opportunity to gather a sizable audience on the National Mall to witness his inauguration, which is undoubtedly disappointing for a guy who is fixated with crowd numbers.

On Sunday, Trump will also host an indoor event at Washington’s Capitol One Arena.

He added that fans would be able to witness the inauguration event from the arena on Monday as well in his Truth Social post from Friday.

He wrote, “On Monday, we will open Capital One Arena to host the Presidential Parade and to view this historic event LIVE.” “After I’m sworn in, I’ll join the crowd at Capital One.”
