Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Google CEO Sundar Pichai attended the ceremony. Reiterating his resolve to ‘Make America Great Again’, Donald Trump, after being sworn in as the 47th US President, declared that the golden age of America has begun, and today marks the ‘Liberation Day’ for the country. Recalling the assassination attempt on him during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania last year, Trump asserted that “God saved” his life.
“The Golden Age of America begins right now,” Trump said after taking oath. The US President added that after he took over the White House, America had the chance to seize this opportunity “like never before.” “America will soon be greater, stronger, and far more exceptional than ever before. I return to the presidency confident and optimistic that we are at the start of a thrilling new era of national success. A tide of change is sweeping the country. Sunlight is pouring over the entire world. And America has the chance to seize this opportunity like never before,” he said.
“But first, we must be honest about the challenges we face. While they are plentiful, they will be annihilated by this great momentum that the world is now witnessing in the United States of America,” he added.
