According to protocol, Vice President-elect J.D. Vance will be sworn in first, followed by Donald Trump.
Donald Trum will fold on two Bibles: the Lincoln Bible and the Bible given by his mother, the inaugural committee reported the day before.
The Lincoln Bible is the Bible on which the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, took the oath of office in 1861. It has since been used three more times: twice by President Obama and twice by President Trump during his first inauguration.
Republican candidate Donald Trump defeated Democrat Kamala Harris in the November 5, 2024 election. At 78, he will become the oldest president of the United States at the time of taking office (the current president, Joe Biden, was also 78, but he was born in November, and Trump in June).
