Under the Constitution’s 20th Amendment, the newly elected president of the United States takes office on Jan. 20 (unless that’s a Sunday, in which case it moves to Jan. 21). For Trump’s (second) big day, the pomp and circumstance will include performances by Carrie Underwood and the Village People, a military parade, and formal balls.

The best laid plans for Donald Trump’s inauguration — the pomp and circumstance of the outdoor Capitol swearing in ceremony followed by a parade down Pennsylvania Avenue — have been stymied by Mother Nature.

Donald Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States, capping his astounding political comeback.
