Word of the inauguration eve rally was first reported by CBS News.
As the nation eagerly awaits the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden, outgoing President Donald Trump has announced plans to headline a “victory rally” in the nation’s capital on the eve of the inauguration.
The rally, set to take place the night before Biden is sworn in as the 46th President of the United States, is expected to draw a large crowd of Trump supporters who continue to stand by the President despite his loss in the 2020 election.
Trump’s decision to hold a rally on the eve of Biden’s inauguration has sparked controversy and concerns about potential unrest in the city, as tensions remain high following the deadly riot at the Capitol earlier this month.
Critics have raised concerns about the rally potentially inciting violence or further dividing the country, while supporters see it as a way for Trump to bid farewell to his presidency and thank his loyal followers.
Regardless of the controversy surrounding the event, one thing is for certain – all eyes will be on Washington D.C. as Trump prepares to take center stage one last time before the inauguration of his successor.
