The meeting between the outgoing president and his successor in the company of the current and future first lady was private without the presence of the media. This “tea” tradition was started in 1837 by President Andrew Jackson and his successor Martin Van Buren. However, the tradition was broken in 2021 by the outgoing Trump, who did not accept Biden for a visit to the White House because he questioned the election results. reminds the BBC.
Republican Donald Trump will officially become the 47th president of the United States after taking the oath of office on Monday. Due to the expected low temperatures (during the ceremony it should be minus three degrees Celsius), the inauguration of the old American president will take place in the rotunda of the Capitol building. The last president to be sworn in indoors was Ronald Reagan in 1985.
