Trump takes oath of office
“I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and will to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, so help me God.” Trump says as he takes oath of office.
In Washington, DC, Donald Trump was sworn in for a second term as president at noon local time (17:00 GMT).
Trump reiterated his complaints against his political rivals in his inaugural address, claiming he would “liberate” the nation from a “radical and corrupt establishment.”
A state of emergency along the southern border with Mexico was one of the administrative acts he intended to take in the days ahead, which were also hinted at in his speech.
Although he has threatened to imprison political rivals, Trump, the only US president to be found guilty of a crime, also condemned the “weaponization” of the legal system.
His address has also received worldwide outrage, as Trump claimed once again the US is “taking back” the Panama Canal, part of Panama’s territory.
