Donald Trump was sworn in as US President for a second time, declaring that he was 'saved by God' to lead America. His inauguration speech focused on American strength, prosperity, and traditional values, promising to end 'wokeness' and prioritize American interests. This inauguration marked a remarkable comeback for Trump after facing numerous legal challenges and a turbulent first term.
Donald Trump declared 'I was saved by God to make America great again' after being sworn in as US President for a second time yesterday. The ceremony saw Trump surrounded by family, political allies, and outgoing President Joe Biden. Trump survived an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in July last year, where a sniper's bullet tore through his ear. During his inaugural address, he stated, 'I was saved by God for a reason — I was saved by God to make America great again.
' He pledged a return to 'common sense,' an end to 'wokeness' and political correctness, and a focus on American prosperity and freedom. Trump thanked black and Hispanic voters for their support in his return to power and promised to expel criminal migrants he deemed detrimental to the nation. He declared his commitment to building a 'colour blind and merit-based' society with only two genders: male and female. The President also expressed optimism about America's future, stating, 'Sunlight is pouring over the entire world and America has the chance to seize this opportunity like never before.'This inauguration marked a remarkable comeback for Trump, who just four years ago faced potential prosecution for his role in the Capitol riots and a string of criminal and civil charges. He had also survived an assassination attempt last year. However, his landslide victory over Democrat Kamala Harris in November propelled him back to the pinnacle of world power. Trump intends to enact sweeping changes through a list of 200 executive orders on his first day in office, focusing on ending 'wokeness,' addressing illegal immigration, and prioritizing American interests. Notably, tech giants like Google's Sundar Pichai and Apple's Tim Cook were given prominent seats at the inauguration, reflecting the growing influence of these companies under Trump's presidency. The event drew a mixed crowd, with Trump supporters celebrating his victory and past Democratic presidents and political rivals reacting with varying degrees of unease.
