This is Trump's second inauguration as president. The first was as the 45th president on Jan. 20, 2017.

On Sunday, he laid a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery and held a "Make America Great Again Victory Rally" in Washington ahead of Monday's swearing-in ceremony, which has now been moved inside to the Capitol Rotunda because of frigid temperatures in the nation's capital.

ABC News' Ivan Pereira, Nadine El-Bawab, and Stacey Dec contributed to this report.
