President of the United States of
America Donald J Trump after taking the
oath of office President Trump gave a
speech that lacked any of the incendiary
rhetoric we’ve grown accustomed to such
as when he argued that prejudice isn’t
consistent with patriotism though some
still viewed his speech as divisive he
tried to strike a balance between
rallying his supporters and uniting the
country the speech seemingly called out
previous US politicians including the
former president sitting next to him as
being ineffective and inadequate at
leading most Americans for too long a
small group in our nation’s capitol has
reaped the rewards of government while
the people have borne the cost it also
echoed much of the same sentiment that
his campaign had inspired in which Trump
related his election to that of a
revolution in the country promising
great change the establishment protected
itself but not the citizens of our
country nationalism ran high with Trump
stating that America would come first in
every situation from that point forward
and in the finale he repeated his
long-standing promise we will make
America great again after the national
anthem was sung the new president left
to escort former President Obama out of
the Capitol building thank you for
