Donald Trump paid a visit to Arlington National Cemetery on Sunday, the eve of his inauguration.
Trump’s visit to Arlington marks the first time he has visited the solemn site since he attended a wreath-laying ceremony in honor of the 13 service members who died during the withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
Trump visited the cemetery to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After leaving Arlington, Trump is scheduled to rally with supporters at Capital One Arena. Later Sunday evening, Trump is expected to speak at a candlelight dinner.
The Daily Wire reports:
Trump returned to Washington, D.C., on Saturday after a round of golf at his club in Sterling, Virginia. The president-elect spent the night at the Blair House, the official guest residence of the U.S. president on Pennsylvania Avenue, in line with tradition.
The festivities and ceremony will continue tomorrow on Inauguration Day. Trump will be sworn into office in the Capitol building after frigid temperatures expected in the nation’s capital pushed the ceremony indoors. The traditional parade was canceled.
