Trump to hold DC rally day before inauguration
President-elect Trump will hold a rally in Washington the day before he is set to be inaugurated for a second term.
The president-elect will hold what is being dubbed a "victory rally" at Capital One Arena on Jan. 19, according to an announcement from his inauguration committee sent out Wednesday.
Trump is expected to speak, as are others, though a list of additional speakers was not immediately available.
CBS News first reported on the planned rally.
Trump's inauguration will take place on Jan. 20. He will be sworn in at the Capitol, and there will be multiple events throughout the day to mark the beginning of his second term.
The president-elect has not held a rally in the District of Columbia, since he delivered a speech on the Ellipse on Jan. 6, 2021, which preceded a violent attack on the Capitol by supporters attempting to stop the certification of the 2020 election results.
Trump met earlier this week with D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, who called it a "great meeting to discuss our shared priorities" for Trump's second term.
