Thousands squeeze into Capital One area for televised viewing of president’s swearing-in despite frigid weather

• Donald Trump inauguration – live updates

In bitter cold, thousands of Donald Trump’s faithful gathered at the Capital One Arena in Washington for a televised viewing of his inauguration, sharing stories of unwavering support despite not being able to see the president up close.

The weather-forced move indoors scaled back what Capitol police had anticipated would be a crowd of a quarter-million ticketed guests, though die-hard supporters still made their way through the capital’s frozen streets to be as close as possible to the historic moment.
