President-elect Donald Trump will hold a rally in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, January 19 — one day before he is sworn into office for his second term.
Trump’s inauguration committee announced on Wednesday that the “Make America Great Again Victory Rally” will be held at Capital One Arena, which can seat around 20,000 people, beginning at 3:00 p.m. ET, CBS News reported. The incoming president is slated to speak at the event along with a list of other speakers who have not been revealed, according to The Hill. Trump hasn’t held a rally in D.C. since January 6, 2021, when he delivered a speech on the Ellipse before hundreds of people stormed the Capitol Building.
The president-elect met with Washington, D.C., Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser earlier this week, and Bowser said the discussions were “great,” adding, “President Trump and I both want Washington, DC to be the best, most beautiful city in the world and we want the capital city to reflect the strength of our nation.”
The D.C. pre-inauguration rally will mark Trump’s second major speech after he defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. The president-elect also spoke at Turning Point USA’s America Fest on December 22.
“For those of us standing before you today, I can proudly proclaim that the Golden Age of America is upon us,” Trump said during his AmericaFest speech. The president-elect also vowed that his administration would be “fully operational” within two hours after he is sworn in on January 20. For Trump to fulfill that promise, he’ll need the help of his cabinet nominees who face Senate confirmation hearings in the next few weeks.

I hope they use more bullet proof screens and everyone is wearing a vest.
Vance gets sworn in first...then at noon...Trump gets sworn in.
I'm praying that everyone is safe and we can get on with it. This is one damn brave family.
January 19?
That is the anniversary of General Robert E. Lee’s birth.
Knowing President Trump, this is no coincidence.
I agree. I am so afraid the media dem pols etc have so inflamed Trump hatred.
Please God keep ouirn President Trump safe
God keep Our President Trump safe.
More repulsive (and retarded) comparisons to the Nuremburg rallies inbound, no doubt.
So the 19th...which is on a Sunday....makes sense.
Anyways...Trump wants to get sworn in and go to Town on a pile of EOs that will correct some of Biden's stupidity.
And Johnson will be busy passing bills to move us forward.

Thune will be our Majority Leader in the Senate. Will he bring HR2 to the floor??
“Is a Victory Rally something knew??”
In 2016 or 2017, he had something like that. Maybe a “thank you” rally or similar.
I think this sci-fi creature is right. When Bowser is playing along, I see trouble.
Not a good idea.
In a normal reality, this would be considered awesome, without any second thoughts. That’s not our timeline though. I’m sure the left and deep state are salivating at the chance to create a Jan6 situation again with all their undercover puppets. Good luck and head in a swivel everyone!
blithely walking right into it.
The bill would have to be passed again in the House, too, because bills do not carry over from one legislative session to the next.
Should be on the day after swearing in cuz of snakes
Conference championships-NFL. I’ll be in the islands. Tough call.
FR should sell hats that say “FReepers Are Smarter Than Trump”
There’s the women’s march, Project 2025 rally + protests, BLM has something going on, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Antifa and the Palis try something.
Could be hoppin’ in DC this month.
