Everyone was all smiles, but Trump’s response could not be heard. First lady Michelle Obama hugged Trump and they kissed on both cheeks.
{mosads}Melania Trump arrived next, shook Obama’s hand and presented the first lady with a gift in what appeared to be a box from Tiffany & Co.
“You brought us a gift,” a surprised Michelle Obama said.
The couples posed for a photo then entered the White House, where they are expected to have tea with congressional leaders before heading to the Capitol for the inaugural ceremonies.
