Hello, welcome to a rainy Washington DC.	:00:14.	:00:16.
Leah here, coming to you live from America's capital city.	:00:17.	:00:27.
Today is the day that Donald Trump becomes the US President -	:00:28.	:00:30.
the man who promises to "make America great again".	:00:31.	:00:41.
Just to be a bit overblown, it is very busy here. The helicopters	:00:42.	:00:48.
buzzing around and military trucks blocking the road to the White	:00:49.	:00:54.
House. That is just behind me. We saw some police cars speeding by, we	:00:55.	:00:59.
think the President elect and Barack Obama were in those cars. It has	:01:00.	:01:02.
been busy for Donald Trump already, he has enjoyed a copy with Iraq	:01:03.	:01:09.
Obama already. Any next half hour he will be sworn in as the next	:01:10.	:01:13.
President of America. It will be a busy day for him.	:01:14.	:01:16.
Here's a quick rundown of what's in store for him.	:01:17.	:01:18.
The president lives in the White House,	:01:19.	:01:20.
but the important bit today happens in the capital.	:01:21.	:01:22.
That's where Trump will be sworn in as	:01:23.	:01:24.
president and take an oath promising to do the best job he can.	:01:25.	:01:27.
Then he will make his speech called the inaugural address.	:01:28.	:01:30.
At the same time, movers will have a few hours	:01:31.	:01:32.
to move the Obama family's possessions out and move in Trump's.	:01:33.	:01:36.
After Trump's speech, Obama will then leave.	:01:37.	:01:39.
He should go out in style, though, with the past few presidents	:01:40.	:01:44.
There's a feast that will include food from Trump's home	:01:45.	:01:55.
Next up is the parade, this includes high	:01:56.	:02:00.
It is probably nice to stretch your legs	:02:01.	:02:03.
In the evening, there's lots of balls hosted over the city.	:02:04.	:02:07.
The President tries to attend as many as possible.	:02:08.	:02:10.
It's a bit exhausting, but you only become	:02:11.	:02:12.
Then it's time for a good night's sleep for the	:02:13.	:02:18.
first day in office for President Trump.	:02:19.	:02:22.
Well, you can see the crowds that have already turned up	:02:23.	:02:26.
for the parade and it will pass through this street next to me	:02:27.	:02:29.
On every street corner there is some and selling Trump and I is.	:02:30.	:02:39.
Now, while Trump has his fans, he's hugely unpopular	:02:40.	:02:41.
Several politicians have even skipped today's inauguration,	:02:42.	:02:44.
and this weekend there are many protests planned across the country,	:02:45.	:02:52.
They have mostly been small and if you clash is with pleas, but not big	:02:53.	:02:59.
