美國國會大廈附近的安檢口也發(fā)生了幾起非暴力游行示威。就職儀式在國家中心舉行,警察幫忙對游客進行檢票。國家中心市場人們舉著牌子,上面寫著各種各樣的標(biāo)語,有,“反對特朗普——氣候法”“讓自由飛”“解放巴勒斯坦”

Before Inauguration Day, a group called DisruptJ20 coalition had promised that it would interfere with the celebrations, risking arrest if necessary.
就職的前一天,一個叫做破壞J20的組織曾表示將會干涉就職典禮,即使冒著被捕的危險
Eleanor Goldfield helped organize the DisruptJ20 protest. She said protesters wanted to show Trump and his, in her words, "misguided, misinformed or just plain dangerous" supporters that they will not be silent.
破壞I20組織負(fù)責(zé)人為Eleanor Goldfield。用她自己的話說,示威者將會告訴特朗普本人,以及他的“被誤導(dǎo)、被迷惑、危險存在的”支持者,他們不會保持沉默

Trump supporter Brett Ecker told the Associated Press that the protesters were frustrating, but they were not ruining the day for him.
特朗普支持者Brett Ecker 對新聞聯(lián)合社稱,示威者感到很失望,但是他們不會讓特朗普安靜地過一天。

“他們只是想簡單的制造暴亂,”誒克說道,“這讓我感到很失望,但是人們選擇這樣做,但我再次聲明,這就是我愛這個國家的一點。”
