After an election campaign that had absolutely everything in the United States, including an assassination attempt, Donald Trump managed to win a comfortable victory in the election. On Monday, January 20, 2024, Washington will be decked out to host what will be the Republican’s second term in office.
Trump will be sworn in as president of the United States of America in a city that is completely cordoned off for the ceremony. What is striking is that this event will take place inside the Capitol.
Meanwhile, on the outgoing president’s side, Joe Biden ends his four-year term in the White House with the last few months marked by rumors about his health, accompanied by some strange episodes.
The Democrat, who was almost ‘forced’ to drop out of the presidential race in favor of Kamala Harris, spent his last day as president in an African-American church, which was seen as a nod to that community.
It is worth mentioning that Biden has urged Americans to “keep the faith” and has even carried out a large number of amnesties and commutations during his legislature.
Joe Biden’s farewell: “We must remain united”
From the same Royal Missionary Baptist Church in Charleston, the former president said that “we must stick together. I’m not going anywhere.”
But he has not only stayed there, but has wanted to emphasize this message in this way: “We must hold on to hope. We must stay committed, always keep the faith that a better day is coming. I’m not going anywhere.”
In addition, Joe Biden told those present the reason that led him to this church in his farewell as president of the United States: “I prayed with you here in February 2020, when I ran for president. On my last full day as president, this was, of all places, the place I wanted to be.”
