President Donald Trump said that he will pray for the new administration in his farewell address to the nation.
“As I conclude my term as the 45th President of the United States, I stand before you truly proud of what we have achieved together. We did what we came here to do — and so much more,” he said.
“This week, we inaugurate a new Administration and pray for its success in keeping America safe and prosperous,” he expressed. We extend our best wishes, and we also want them to have luck – a very important word.”
Trump thanked all the amazing people who made “our remarkable journey possible.”
“Most of all, I want to thank the American people. To serve as your President has been an honor beyond description. Thank you for this extraordinary privilege.
“And that’s what it is — a great privilege and a great honor,” he said.
“We must never forget that while Americans will always have our disagreements, we are a nation of incredible, decent, faithful, and peace-loving citizens who all want our country to thrive and flourish and be very, very successful and good. We are a truly magnificent nation.
“All Americans were horrified by the assault on our Capitol. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish as Americans. It can never be tolerated.
“Now more than ever, we must unify around our shared values and rise above the partisan rancor, and forge our common destiny.”
Speaking about the coronavirus pandemic, Trump said: “When our nation was hit with the terrible pandemic, we produced not one, but two vaccines with record-breaking speed, and more will quickly follow.point 289 |
They said it couldn’t be done but we did it.point 37 | They call it a ‘medical miracle,’ and that’s what they’re calling it right now: a ‘medical miracle.point 130 | ’point 133 | 1
“Another administration would have taken 3, 4, 5, maybe even up to 10 years to develop a vaccine. We did in nine months.
“We grieve for every life lost, and we pledge in their memory to wipe out this horrible pandemic once and for all.”
He continued: “For years, the American people pleaded with Washington to finally secure the nation’s borders.point 298 |
I am pleased to say we answered that plea and achieved the most secure border in U.point 67 | S.point 69 | history.point 77 | We have given our brave border agents and heroic ICE officers the tools they need to do their jobs better than they have ever done before, and to enforce our laws and keep America safe.point 228 | 1
“We proudly leave the next administration with the strongest and most robust border security measures ever put into place. This includes historic agreements with Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, along with more than 450 miles of powerful new wall.
“We restored American strength at home and American leadership abroad. The world respects us again. Please don’t lose that respect.”
He also noted that the “movement we started is only just beginning.”
“Now, as I prepare to hand power over to a new administration at Noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning,” Trump said. “There’s never been anything like it. The belief that a nation must serve its citizens will not dwindle but instead only grow stronger by the day.
“As long as the American people hold in their hearts deep and devoted love of country, then there is nothing that this nation cannot achieve. Our communities will flourish. Our people will be prosperous. Our traditions will be cherished. Our faith will be strong. And our future will be brighter than ever before.”
“I go from this majestic place with a loyal and joyful heart, an optimistic spirit, and a supreme confidence that for our country and for our children, the best is yet to come,” he added.
“Thank you, and farewell. God bless you. God bless the United States of America.”
