US President-elect Donald Trump is set to hold a victory rally at the Capitol One Arena in Washington D.C. on January 19, the day before his formal inauguration on January 20.
The indoor event, which is expected to attract a large crowd, will be part of Trump’s signature rally-style events that allow him to connect with supporters through jokes and informal interactions.
Security measures will be tightened due to the event’s status as a national special security operation. The move comes as Trump has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping and other world leaders to his inauguration, which is seen as an unconventional gesture that may test relationships with traditional US allies.
Trump’s campaign promises include mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico, and the swift end to Russia’s war in Ukraine.
