Original Note:
It is not a requirement for Presidents to place their hand on a bible, it is optional. Several presidents before have not had a bible at their oath of office Secondly the oath was started before Melania was standing next to Trump with the Bible in hand. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath_of_office_of_the_president_of_the_United_States https://youtu.be/hAJb7uTcgAw?si=1p_wWsZPrBsHmjS7
