DOMINIQUE SACHSE, KPRC CHANNEL 2
NEWS.
>> FASHION MATTERS, THANK YOU.
NICE JOB.
WE'LL SEE YOU AGAIN TONIGHT AT
10:00.
>>> DOMINIQUE IS REPORTING FROM
THE NBC BUREAU ON CAPITOL
STREET.
OUR KEITH GARVIN IS LESS THAN A
MILE AT THE NATIONAL MALL.
>> HE WAS THERE ALONG WITH
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHERS.
QUITE A MOMENT TO WITNESS WITH
SUCH A BIG CROWD.
>> Reporter: SURE WAS, SARA AND
BILL.
REGARDLESS OF YOUR POLITICAL
PERSUASION, WITNESSING AN
INAUGURATION IS USUALLY AN
AMAZING THING FOR MIAMERICAN TO
SEE.
BUT DES -- ANY AMERICAN TO SEE.
BUT DESPITE THE SYMBOLISM AND
ELEGANCE, POLITICS DOES PLAY A
ROLE EVEN FOR THOSE WHO SEE IT
IN PERSON.
>> THESE ARE --
>> Reporter: A CROWD OF A FEW
HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE ON SIGHT
TO WITNESS THE INAUGURATION OF
DONALD TRUMP AS OUR NATION'S
45th PRESIDENT.
THEY TURNED OUT ON THE NATIONAL
MALL FOR DIFFERENT REASONS.
THEY ALSO LEFT WITH DIFFERENT
INTERPRETATIONS OF PRESIDENT
TRUMP'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
SOFIA OF HOUSTON BELIEVES HE
SOUNDED LIKE THE SAME DONALD
TRUMP SAYS SHE SAID SHE HEARD ON
THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.
>> I THINK HE JUST HAS HIS
BLINDERS ON AND IF YOU'RE NOT
BOOSTING UP HIS EGO, HE'S NOT
GOING TO LISTEN TO YOU.
>> Reporter: IN THE CROWD WERE
OTHER PEACEFUL BUT VOCAL
PROTESTORS.
>> I THINK IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR
VOICES LIKE OURS TO BE HEARD AND
ALSO FOR US TO COME TOGETHER IN
SOME KIND OF UNITY TO EXPRESS
PEACEFUL OPPOSITION TO DONALD
TRUMP'S INAUGURATION.
>> Reporter: WHAT WE SAW THROUGH
MOST OF THE CROWD, THOUGH, WERE
DONALD TRUMP SUPPORTERS WHO WERE
HERE BECAUSE HIS CAMPAIGN
RESONATED WITH THEM.
>> TO HAVE A PRESIDENT SAY OUT
LOUD THAT THEY'RE GOING TO FOCUS
ON DOING THE JOB OF A PRESIDENT,
WHICH IS TO BUILD OUR COUNTRY,
TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR COUNTRY
HAS ALL OF THE THINGS IT NEEDS
SO IT CAN BE SUCCESSFUL ON THE
GLOBAL STAGE AND I THINK WHAT
DONALD TRUMP SAID TODAY AN
AWESOME SPEECH, WILL GO DOWN IN
HISTORY AS ONE OF THE BEST
SPEECHES.
>> Reporter: AND AS PRESIDENT
AND THE NEW FIRST LADY GET READY
FOR THE THREE BALLS THAT
DOMINIQUE MENTIONED, WORKERS
HAVE BEEN BUSY TEARING THINGS
DOWN BUT GETTING IT READY AGAIN
FOR A MAJOR WOMEN'S MARCH THAT
TAKES PLACE TOMORROW MORNING.
THEY STAY BUSY HERE IN DWR.
