Donald Trump sworn in as 47th President of the United States of America
Donald Trump took the oath of office as the 47th President of the United States a short while ago.
He was sworn into office on two Bibles – one given to him by his mother, and the Lincoln Bible which has been used by several other previous presidents – including Abraham Lincoln in 1861.
President Trump swore to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution.
It is the first time since the 1890s that a president who was defeated in an election has returned victorious to take the oath for a second time.
