Donald Trump has been inaugurated President for the second time. It's the first time since 1893 a president has been sworn in for a second non-consecutive term, the last being Grover Cleveland.

Trump has promised to to issue multiple executive orders on day one, with immigration and border protection a big focus.

Real Clear Politics Senior Election Analyst Sean Trende says things have changed since his first term.

"He won the most votes this time around, unlike 2016. And so I think there's just a general sense of legitimacy about this presidency that there wasn't in 2016."
