Trump Sworn In as 47th President Indoors, Omits Hand on Bible
Jan 20, 2025, 08:13 PM
During his inauguration on Monday, President Donald Trump did not place his hand on the Bible while taking the oath of office, becoming the 47th president of the United States. Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath inside the U.S. Capitol Rotunda due to frigid weather. First Lady Melania Trump stood beside him holding two Bibles—one given to Trump by his mother and the Lincoln Bible used by Abraham Lincoln in 1861. Despite the absence of his hand on the Bible, Trump successfully took the oath, which is required by the Constitution but does not mandate the use of a religious text. This event sparked discussions and curiosity on social media, though it has no legal implications on his presidency.
