PRESS REVIEW – 
Tuesday, January 21: We look at reactions and analysis from the US press as Donald Trump is inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States. 
  • While the Wall Street Journal hails an "inaugural of optimism", The New York Times calls Trump's pardons of some 1,500 January 6 rioters an "opening act of contempt". 
  • The international press express concern as they ponder Trump's next moves, including a US withdrawal from the WHO. 
  • Elsewhere, Elon Musk is under fire for what some have described as a Nazi salute. 
  • Finally, First Lady Melania Trump sends the internet into overdrive with her choice of headgear.
