President-elect Donald Trump is expected to begin his second term in the Oval Office on Monday, January 20.
The Inauguration Day ritual will attract considerable attention as Trump returns to power with a tighter grip on the various branches of power. In addition to Republican control of the House and Senate, it also has a conservative majority on the Supreme Court.
Media devote considerable resources to covering the presidential transition Joe Biden to Trump, which will take place during one of the coldest days of the current winter season.
