STORYLINE:
Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president Monday, promising a “revolution of common sense” and taking charge as Republicans assume unified control of Washington and set out to reshape the country’s institutions.
Trump, who overcame impeachments, criminal indictments and a pair of assassination attempts to win another term in the White House, will act swiftly after the ceremony, with executive orders already prepared for his signature to clamp down on border crossings, increase fossil fuel development and end diversity and inclusion programs across the federal government.
He announced the orders in his remarks as the crowd inside the Capitol rotunda stood to applaud.
"As commander in chief, I have no higher responsibility than to defend our country from threats and invasions. And that is exactly what I am going to do," Trump said.
“We will make his dream come true,” Trump vowed of the Rev. King.
