Donald Trump has been sworn in as the 47th president of the United States, returning to the White House four years after his defeat. In his inaugural speech on Monday, the 78-year-old took an aggressive stance, using his platform in the Capitol Rotunda to criticise outgoing Democratic President Joe Biden. Trump vowed a “revolution of common sense” and condemned Biden’s presidency. He signed multiple executive orders to reverse key Biden policies and pardoned around 1,500 individuals charged over the January 6 Capitol riot in 2021.
