Photos: Trump inauguration brings supporters, protesters to Washington in droves

WASHINGTON — Thousands of people came to the nation’s capital this weekend, ready to party — or protest — despite the bitterly cold temperatures.
A number of progressive groups held marches around the country to protest President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, with a “People’s March” held in Washington on Saturday. It was planned by many of the same groups that organized the 2017 Women’s March, which had a far larger turnout.
Trump supporters headed into the city over the weekend in advance of the main inauguration ceremony and balls Monday, with a number of parties and a large rally at Capital One Arena. Because of the frigid weather forecast for Monday, the Trump team decided to move the swearing-in ceremony indoors, into the U.S. Capitol, forcing many supporters to adjust their plans.
Here’s a look at how Americans are gearing up for a second Trump term.
