Entering ChinaAt noon local time on Monday (January 20), Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States and delivered his inaugural address in the rotunda of the Capitol in Washington, D.C.
Trump opened the remarks, “America’s golden age begins now, and for Americans, January 20, 2025, is Liberation Day.” Our current government is unable to deal with even a simple crisis at home, and is constantly embroiled in a series of catastrophic events abroad. ”
“I was elected to reverse the terrible betrayal. From this moment on, the decline of the United States is over. Trump said he would “end the administration’s policy of trying to influence race and gender in all aspects of the public and private spheres through social engineering.” ”
“We will build a performance-based society regardless of color,” Trump said. As of today, it is official policy of the U.S. government that there are only two genders: male and female. In the wake of Trump’s victory, many companies have withdrawn their Diversity, Equity & Inclusion policies.
Trump stressed that he will take a series of actions on his first day in office, that is, today, “Today, I will sign a series of historic executive orders through which we will begin a complete restoration of the United States and the revolution of common sense.” It’s all about common sense. ”
“I will declare a state of emergency on the southern border, all illegal entry will cease immediately, and we will begin to deport millions of foreign criminals to where they came from.” We will also designate these cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. ”
When it comes to inflation, Trump said, “I will instruct all cabinet members to use the enormous power at their disposal to beat record inflation and quickly reduce costs and prices.” “He will declare a national energy emergency. “We’ll ‘drill, baby, drill’. ”
“Drill, baby, drill” was the Republican Party’s 2008 campaign slogan that expressed support for increased oil and gas drilling to provide additional energy, and Trump used it several times during his 2024 presidential campaign.
Trump said the U.S. would use its oil reserves to fill national reserves and boost exports, and that “we’re going to make cars in the U.S. again at a pace that no one could have imagined just a few years ago.” He also mentioned that he would “revoke the electric vehicle injunction”.
On trade, Trump said he would immediately begin reforming the trade system to protect American workers and families, “We are not taxing our own citizens to make other countries rich, but imposing tariffs and taxes on foreign countries to make our own citizens rich.” ”
“To this end, we are setting up external tax services to collect all duties, taxes and taxes. A lot of money will come from abroad, pouring into our coffers, and the American Dream will soon return and flourish like never before, restoring the capacity and efficiency of our federal government. ”
Trump also mentioned that Mount Denali (the highest peak in North America) will be renamed Mount McKinley. McKinley was referring to William McKinley, the 25th president of the United States, who advocated hard currency, high tariffs, and promised that raising tariffs would make the U.S. economy prosperous again.
“We will pursue our destiny in space, fly to the stars, send American astronauts to Mars, plant the Stars and Stripes,” Trump said. The media photographed Elon Musk, who was present at the event, giving him a thumbs up with a smile when Trump said this.
“Soon we will change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Regarding the Panama Canal, Trump said, “We gave it to Panama, and now we’re going to get it back.” We have been treated very badly and Panama has broken its promises to us. ”
“The purpose of the agreement we reached and the spirit of the treaty have been completely violated, and American ships have been grossly overcharged and have not been treated fairly in any way.” Trump has previously said that the Panama Canal charges “exorbitant prices and tolls” for U.S. Navy and merchant ships.
Trump stressed that he is committed to being a “peacemaker” who ends the war and has pledged not to engage in it. At this point, attendees on both sides of Trump, including Democrats, gave a standing ovation. At the same time, he noted that the US military will focus on defeating America’s enemies.
“A lot of people think I’m not going to be able to make such a historic political comeback, but as you can see today, I’m here because the American people have spoken out,” Trump concluded. In America, what we do best is do the impossible. ”
