“January 20th cannot come fast enough! Everybody, even those that initially opposed a Victory by President Donald J. Trump and the Trump Administration, just want it to happen.
It is my obligation to protect the People of our Country but, before we even begin, we have to think of the Inauguration itself.
The weather forecast for Washington, D.C., with the windchill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows. There is an Arctic blast sweeping the Country. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way.
It is dangerous conditions for the tens of thousands of Law Enforcement, First Responders, Police K9s and even horses, and hundreds of thousands of supporters that will be outside for many hours on the 20th (In any event, if you decide to come, dress warmly!).
Therefore, 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, also because of very cold weather.
The various Dignitaries and Guests will be brought into the Capitol. This will be a very beautiful experience for all, and especially for the large TV audience!
We will open Capital One Arena on Monday for LIVE viewing of this Historic event, and to host the Presidential Parade. I will join the crowd at Capital One, after my Swearing In.
All other events will remain the same, including the Victory Rally at Capital One Arena, on Sunday at 3 P.M. (Doors open at 1 P.M.—Please arrive early!), and all three Inaugural Balls on Monday evening.
Everyone will be safe, everyone will be happy, and we will, together, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
New Reports Suggest White House Venue Under Consideration
While the Capitol Rotunda remains an option, new reports suggest that discussions are underway to move the swearing-in ceremony to the White House itself. According to Daily Beast reporter Juliegrace Brufke, this adjustment is being considered as the Arctic blast continues to disrupt original plans.
This potential venue change follows an announcement from several law enforcement agencies in the Washington, D.C., area, indicating they will not assist with security during the inauguration. Agencies in Maryland, including Montgomery, Howard, and Queen Anne’s counties, have reportedly declined to participate. Though specific reasons remain unclear, some speculate it could be related to disputes over Washington Metro PD’s use-of-force policies.

Law Enforcement Challenges Add Complexity
The situation is further complicated by recent legal settlements requiring D.C. police to limit the use of certain crowd-control tools, such as sting balls and explosive devices, during protests and riots. These restrictions may have influenced nearby law enforcement agencies to withdraw their support, leaving federal officials to ensure the safety of the inauguration.
A Historic and Unique Event
Despite the logistical challenges, President Trump’s administration remains committed to delivering a memorable inauguration. By hosting parts of the event indoors and utilizing large screens at Capital One Arena, the president hopes to balance safety with accessibility for his supporters.
As Washington, D.C., braces for extreme weather, all eyes will be on how these unprecedented adjustments play out. With only days to go, one thing is certain: President Trump’s second inauguration will be unlike any other in history.
