One of the striking themes observed in Washington, D.C., during the weekend leading up to the inauguration and on the day itself was the overwhelming presence of long lines.
Two days prior to Trump’s inauguration, on Jan. 18, the People’s March took place in Washington, D.C. Organizers anticipated an attendance of around 50,000 participants, though law enforcement on scene estimated the number was between 5,000 and 10,000.
