In his inauguration speech, Trump addressed his commitment to making America a strong and confident country, and protecting everyone’s rights regardless of race, religion, or any sort of difference.
Trump promised to bring a bright future to the country, as he ended his speech with his campaign slogan.
“Together we will make America strong again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And, yes, together, we will make America great again,” said Trump.
Following his speech, Rabbi Marvin Hier, Reverend Franklin Graham, and Bishop Wayne T. Jackson delivered a final prayer and Bible passage to bless the country and its new President.
Starting on the 20th, Donald Trump is the President of the United States and has moved into The White House. Here’s to the success of America, and as Trump said at the very end of his speech,
“God Bless America.”
