00:00We, the citizens of America, are now joined in a great national effort to rebuild our
00:08country and restore its promise for all of our people.
00:15Together, we will determine the course of America and the world for many, many years
00:23to come.
00:25The golden age of America begins right now.
00:28From this day forward, our country will flourish and be respected again all over the world.
00:35We will be the envy of every nation, and we will not allow ourselves to be taken advantage
00:40of any longer.
00:42Americans want great schools for their children, safe neighborhoods for their families, and
00:48good jobs for themselves.
00:51We now have a government that cannot manage even a simple crisis at home, while at the
00:55same time stumbling into a continuing catalog of catastrophic events abroad.
01:02It fails to protect our magnificent, law-abiding American citizens, but provides sanctuary
01:08and protection for dangerous criminals, many from prisons and mental institutions that
01:14have illegally entered our country from all over the world.
01:17We will seek friendship and goodwill with the nations of the world, but we do so with
01:23the understanding that it is the right of all nations to put their own interests first.
01:31We do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone.
01:35National unity is now returning to America, and confidence and pride is soaring like never
01:44before.
01:45In everything we do, my administration will be inspired by a strong pursuit of excellence
01:50and unrelenting success.
01:53Together, we will make America strong again.
01:57We will make America wealthy again.
02:00We will make America proud again.
02:03We will make America safe again.
02:06And yes, together, we will make America great again.
02:12In recent years, our nation has suffered greatly, but we are going to bring it back
02:17and make it great again, greater than ever before.
02:22We will be a nation like no other, full of compassion, courage, and exceptionalism.
