He also signed an order with which only two genders, male and female, are recognized.
“As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female,” the newly elected president said.

Trump’s predecessor, Joe Biden, and his wife, Jill Biden, welcomed the Trumps to the White House in the traditional ceremony marking the transition of leadership in the country.

As expected, Biden, who pulled out of the presidential race in July and endorsed Kamala Harris as his replacement, was present at Trump’s inauguration.

Due to the cold weather, the inauguration took place inside the Capitol building’s Rotunda, and not in front of the building as per tradition.

The Trumps and the Bidens posed for a photo and lip reader Jeremy Freeman tried to interpret the communication between the former and the current presidents of the United States.

Speaking to the Irish Times, Freeman said that Biden greeted Trump saying, “Welcome home.” Trump responded: “How are you? It’s so cold. I need to do my coat up I’m freezing.”

Biden alleged he was also freezing, to what Trump responded jokingly, “Shut up, Biden,” admitting that it was “colder than when we ski.”
