The inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th President of
the United States took place one year ago today. Several hundred thousand
people witnessed in person the ceremony held on Friday, January 20, 2017 on the West Front
of the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.
President-elect Donald J. Trump was sworn into office by Chief
Justice John Roberts, with his hand on two Bibles held by his wife Melania. Wow.

Fashion
note: Melania's gown for the Inauguration evening festivities is now in the Smithsonian. But
somewhere I read (and recent searches failed to find the source) that FLOTUS
conceived of the dress as an homage to America’s founding documents, and her concept of the dress was symbolic of those founding documents on parchment, complete with red ribbon. OK,
I could not find the interview, but here’s a visual:
Happy Anniversary!
