Within a short time they collected millions of followers. <!– In contrast to the last transfer of power four years ago, after the decision of the service, they start without the subscribers who had accumulated in the profiles during the tenure of their predecessors Donald Trump and Mike Pence. President Biden had 1.4 million followers on account @POTUS (President of the United States) in the first half hour, while Vice President Harris on @VP had 5.6 million. – Trump had mostly only used his official account to repeat tweets from his personal account @realDonaldTrump. Twitter had banned him until further notice after his followers attacked the Capitol in Washington. The reason given was that Trump had violated the rules of use and that the move was intended to prevent further escalation. – <!– Joe Biden is the 46th President of the United States of America. The US Chief Justice John Roberts took the oath of office from the 78-year-old Democrat on Wednesday on the west side of the US Capitol in Washington. Kamala Harris had previously been sworn in as the country’s first female vice president. Biden replaces the Republican Donald Trump, who, contrary to tradition, did not attend the inauguration of his successor. – The ceremony at the US Capitol took place under unprecedented security precautions. Two weeks ago violent supporters of the elected Trump stormed the parliament building. The fear of renewed violence around the swearing-in was great. – Biden had won the presidential election in November by a clear margin. He can count on the support of Congress in his planned projects, where his Democrats secured control of both chambers in the elections. Trump sees himself being deprived of victory by massive electoral fraud for which there is no evidence. He left Washington that morning. He is the first outgoing incumbent since 1869 not to attend the Capitol Ceremony. – Here is the photo gallery: Here Joe Biden and Kamala Harris swear the oath of office – – .
