Donald Trump took the presidential oath for a second time at the Capitol.
WASHINGTON -- At noon today, Donald Trump took the presidential oath for a second time, capping a historic political comeback to the White House.
As he did on the campaign trail, Trump painted a dark picture of America and took aim at President Joe Biden's leadership as his predecessor sat just steps away.
"My recent election is a mandate to completely and totally reverse a horrible betrayal, and all of these many betrayals that have taken place, and to give the people back their faith, their wealth, their democracy, and indeed their freedom," Trump said, promising a "golden age of America."

A primetime special anchored by Muir, "The Second Inauguration of Donald J. Trump - An ABC News Special," will air Monday night at 10 p.m. EST on ABC and Tuesday on Hulu.

Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, were advisers in the West Wing during his first presidency. But neither are returning this time around. Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are currently leading the Trump Organization.
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. sent out a blistering X post criticizing fellow Democrats who called Trump a threat to democracy and are now "willing to be there and clap for him."
"People are more upset at performers/artists attending Trump's inaugural events but not upset at all the politicians who told them he was a 'threat to democracy' going to these events are not serious," she wrote.
"Performers at least know they are there to perform and get paid, but these politicians who ran their mouth for 4 yrs and are now willing to be there and clap for him, that's who they should be mad at," she added. "They lied to you and your criticism/anger should be rightfully directed at them.
Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who lost the 2016 election to President-elect Donald Trump, have arrived at Trump's second inauguration. Trump supporters gathered at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., booed as the Clintons walked in.
Former President George W. Bush and former first lady Laura Bush are also at the Capitol, along with former President Barack Obama, who is attending the inauguration without former first lady Michelle Obama.
Former Vice President Mike Pence was also not accompanied by his wife, Karen Pence.
Hundreds of people are gathered inside the Capitol Rotunda, including several of Trump's Cabinet picks: Tulsi Gabbard, tapped for director of national intelligence; Robert F. Kennedy Jr., chosen to lead Health and Human Services; and Pete Hegseth, his pick to lead the Pentagon.
His pick for secretary of state, Marco Rubio, could be confirmed as soon as Monday night. Rubio is considered one of Trump's least controversial picks.
A number of Senate committees that will vote on different nominees have scheduled meetings for later this week.
