Inaugurations through the years: See historical photos from FDR to Joe Biden


President-elect Donald Trump is set to take the oath of office for a second time on Inauguration Day, becoming the first president to do so in nonconsecutive terms since Grover Cleveland.

The nation's capital is preparing for a day of pomp and circumstance that was muted by the COVID-19 pandemic when President Joe Biden assumed office in 2021.

The living former presidents are scheduled to attend, knowing the responsibility set to be placed on Trump once again.

Inaugurations have been held in both joy and sorrow in the nation's capital and, infamously, on a plane in Dallas.

Here are historical images of inaugurations from Franklin Roosevelt to Joe Biden.
