Washington DC, Jan 18 (EFE).-

The president-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, arrived Saturday in Washington DC with a triumphant air ahead of his inauguration as he returns to the White House after a gap of four years.

Trump’s inaugural address on Monday, as well as other speeches, will take place inside the US Capitol’s rotunda, rather than outside the building due to the forecast of extreme cold conditions. The inaugural parade will also be held indoors at Washington’s Capital One Arena.

The Republican leader, accompanied by his wife, Melania, and son Barron, landed around 7pm local time On Saturday at Dulles Airport in Virginia, near the federal capital, from West Palm Beach, Florida.

Trump and Melania descended the stairs of the plane together as the photographers’ flashes illuminated the scene in the midst of the darkness. The president-elect briefly greeted journalists and raised his right fist in a sign of victory.

Several of Trump’s children also arrived in the capital for the inauguration, such as Ivanka, accompanied by her husband, Jared Kushner, and Eric, along with his wife, Lara.

Trump takes over the reins of the country from Joe Biden, whose popularity has nosedived. According to a survey by The Wall Street Journal published Friday, only 36 percent of the people approved of how his administration functioned over the last four years. EFE
