Trump's First Day in Office: Behind-the-Scenes Photos
Briefly

President Trump's return to the White House on Monday marked a historic political comeback highlighted by a traditional service at St. John's Church and a ceremonial welcome from former President Biden. At the church, known as the Church of the Presidents, Trump was accompanied by Vice President JD Vance and their families before proceeding to the White House, where Biden warmly greeted them. This return contrasted sharply with the events surrounding the 2020 election, where Trump refused to concede and missed his inauguration, signifying a dramatic shift in political fortunes.
After the church service, the Trumps headed to the White House, where they were greeted by the departing president, Joseph R. Biden Jr., and the first lady, Jill Biden.
Mr. Biden hosted Mr. Trump for coffee before the inauguration ceremony, contrasting with Mr. Trump's refusal to concede the 2020 election or attend his inauguration four years ago.
