Watch: Trump vs Obama's 2009 inauguration!



The difference is shocking. Only a day after US President Donald Trump took the oath of office, videos are already surfacing on the internet of a side-by-side analysis of Trump's inauguration in comparison with Obama's, nine years ago. 

One of the focal points that people are comparing is the number of people present during both inaugurations. Whilst Obama had a packed and crowded inauguration day, Trump had only a mere handful of American residents attending his event yesterday. 

According to Vox, the Trump team expected about 900,000 residents to witness him being sworn in. 

The real numbers however, shy away from this. Analysis from the New York Times reports that Trump's crowd was only a third of what Obama had during his inauguration - an overwhelming 1.8 million people attended his inauguration in 2009 and an estimated 1 million attended during his second term in 2013. 

Despite the incumbent president's claim of a record breaking attendance, the footage and images are far from the truth.
