On January 20, Donald Trump and his wife Melania, took the oath of office for Trump's second term as the 45th and 47th president of the United States in Washington, D.C.

The inauguration kicked off with a new concept, as the event was held indoors due to freezing temperatures that made it unsafe to be outside.

As expected, Trump once again created several mishaps that quickly went viral on the internet. One such moment was when Trump waved his hand too strongly towards the journalists, accidentally knocking the microphone, which then became the focus of attention for several minutes.

Another funny moment was when Trump, dancing to a live rendition of the Village People's "YMCA," stumbled and almost fell, sparking a flood of memes on social media.

A particularly amusing incident occurred when Trump entered the stage but instead of starting his speech right away, he hesitated and looked around, causing an awkward pause that was immediately discussed online.

One of the most memorable moments was when Barack Obama attended the ceremony, while Trump was spotted dancing to the live rendition of "YMCA" by Village People.

Melania Trump also drew attention with her stylish outfit, but her unusual hat became the subject of many jokes. In one mishap, Donald Trump couldn't kiss his wife because the wide brim of her hat blocked him from reaching her cheek.

American Idol winner and judge Carrie Underwood performed the song "America the Beautiful" at the inauguration. She was joined by other performers such as Lee Greenwood and Christopher Macchio. Underwood performed during the gap between J.D. Vance taking the oath and Donald Trump doing the same. She was accompanied by the Armed Forces Choir and the United States Naval Academy Glee Club.
