Donald Trump was officially sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on Monday, marking an extraordinary political comeback after navigating multiple impeachments, criminal indictments, and surviving two assassination attempts.
In his inaugural address to a passionate group of supporters, Trump declared a new chapter in America’s history, vowing to restore the nation’s strength and global respect.
“The golden age of America begins right now. From this day forward, our country will flourish and be respected again all over the world,” Trump stated, drawing cheers from the audience.
A Packed Agenda of Executive Orders
Immediately after the ceremony, Trump announced his intention to sign a series of executive orders, signaling his determination to make swift and bold changes. Key priorities in his initial agenda include:
- Implementing a Mass Deportation Program: Aimed at addressing illegal immigration.
- Ending Birthright Citizenship: A move expected to spark significant legal and political debate.
- Ramping Up Domestic Oil Drilling: Part of his strategy to boost energy independence.
- Increasing Tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China: In line with his “America First” trade policy.
A Historic Swearing-In Ceremony
Due to unusually cold weather, the swearing-in ceremony took place indoors at the Capitol Rotunda, a rare occurrence not seen in over four decades. Despite the change in venue, the atmosphere was charged with excitement as Trump took the oath of office, flanked by his family and key allies.
Trump’s presidency begins under intense scrutiny, but his message of resilience and optimism has rekindled hope among his supporters, while drawing sharp criticism from his opponents. As the new administration takes shape, the nation and the world are watching closely to see how Trump will navigate this historic return to power.
