Trump arrives in D.C. with Melania and Barron as inauguration ceremony moved inside by freezing weather: Live - President-elect says he has ordered inauguration and speeches to take place in the Capit

President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony has been moved to the U.S. Capitol rotunda on Monday due to winter weather.

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony is moving indoors to the Capitol rotunda because of a frigid weather forecast in the nation's capital Monday, the president-elect announced on social media Friday.

Trump, who is famously obsessed with pomp and crowd size, will take the oath of office indoors due to dangerously cold weather.

Experts debate if a Gaza ceasefire deal that releases hostages could give Donald Trump a lift like Ronald Reagan's in 1981.

Washington, D.C., will experience a high of 21 degrees and a low of 11 degrees around noon when the inauguration is set to begin.

The temperature in D.C. is forecast to be around 22 degrees at noon on Monday during the swearing-in, the coldest since Ronald Reagan's second inauguration.

Observers expect a different tone from the leader who talked about "American carnage" as he started his first term.

In his statement, Trump addressed two obsessions of the MAGA movement: Ronald Reagan and crowd sizes. The incoming president noted that Reagan was sworn in inside the Capitol in 1985, at that moment becoming the oldest president to be inaugurated. That record was eventually bested by Joe Biden in 2021. It will again be broken by Trump next week.

The second inauguration of Ronald Reagan on Jan. 20, 1985, was forced indoors due to intense cold. As USA TODAY noted that day, "The USA's 50th inauguration today moves indoors – a victim of bone-chilling temperatures that threatened 350,000 invited guests and parade watchers."
