January 21, 2017. 1  WASHINGTON (AP) â Pledging emphatically to empower America's forgotten men and women, Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th president of the United States Friday, taking command of a riven nation facing an unpredictable era under his assertive but untested leadership.
In 1801, Thomas Jefferson became the first to be sworn in as president in Washington, D.C., which officially became the federal capital only on June 11, 1800. Inauguration day was originally on March 4, four months after election day, but this was changed to noon on January 20 by the Twentieth Amendment in 1933. The inaugural celebrations usually last ten days, from five days before the inauguration to five days after.
