Amidst the doubts, protests and total boycott, Donald John Trump was
on Friday sworn in as the 45th President of the United States. The
ceremony held at the West Front of the Capitol Building in Washington
and had in attendance all the living former Presidents of the US and
their wives.
President Donald Trump was joined by his wife, Melania and all his
children as he was sworn into office. The swearing-in was followed by
his inaugural speech where he assured the crowd that America will come
first in all decisions made henceforth and the vices that have robbed
the country of its potential will stop immediately.
Here are the 10 most inspiring and noteworthy things President Trump said at his inauguration:
- “We, the citizens of America, are now joined in a great national
effort to rebuild our country and restore its promise for all of our
people. Together, we will determine the course of America and the world
for many, many years to come. We will face challenges. We will confront
hardships. But we will get the job done.” - “January 20th, 2017, will be remembered as the day the people became the rulers of this nation again.“
- “The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no
longer. Everyone is listening to you now. You came by the tens of
millions to become part of a historic movement, the likes of which the
world has never seen before. At the center of this movement is a crucial
conviction that a nation exists to serve its citizens.“ - “For too long, a small group in our nation’s capital has reaped
the rewards of government while the people have bore the cost.
Washington flourished, but the people did not share in its wealth.
Politicians prospered but the jobs left and the factories closed…That
all changes starting right here and right now. - “The wealth of our middle class has been ripped from their homes
and then redistributed all across the world. But that is the past, and
now we are looking only to the future.” - “We assembled here today are issuing a new decree to be heard in
every city, in every foreign capital and in every hall of power. From
this day forward, a new vision will govern our land. From this day
forward, it’s going to be only America first, America first.” - “I will fight for you with every breath in my body, and I will never ever let you down.”
- “We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones – and unite
the civilized world against radical Islamic terrorism, which we will
eradicate from the face of the Earth.” - “We will no longer accept politicians who are all talk and no
action – constantly complaining but never doing anything about it. The
time for empty talk is over. Now arrives the hour of action.“ - “The oath of office I take today is an oath of allegiance to all Americans“
