Donald Trump said while going, he did what he was selected for
Before leaving office, US President Donald Trump said in his farewell address that “we did what we came to do … rather more than that”
In a video posted on YouTube, he said that “I fought very hard battles because you chose me to do so”.
On January 20, newly elected President Joe Biden will take the oath of office. Trump has not yet fully accepted his defeat in the election results that came out in November.
The last two weeks of the Trump administration were filled with controversy when his supporters stormed Capitol Hill, expressing displeasure with the election results and turned violent.
In his video, Trump said, “Politically-motivated violence is violence on all values we believe in the American heart.” In his video address, Trump did not address Joe Biden even once.
What else did Trump say?
The impeachment motion against Donald Trump has been passed in the House of Representatives, the lower house of the US Parliament. He himself is facing charges of “inciting violence” over Capitol Hill violence. If this charge is passed by two-thirds majority in the Senate, then it may also happen that they are now disqualified from any public office.
Trump has become the first President in the history of America against whom impeachment resolution has been passed twice in the same term.
He was also impeached in December 2019 because he broke the law by asking Ukraine to investigate Biden. The Senate, however, released him from the charges. At that time, not a single Republican MP had voted against Trump.
This politically motivated violence completely destroyed the news related to the Corona virus epidemic from the American media. More than 400,000 people have died in the US due to this epidemic, while 24 million people are infected by it.
In his message, Trump said that in his administration, he has made America ‘the greatest economy in the history of the world’.
The US stock market is taking the lead again after suffering the recession caused by Corona virus. In the year 2020, the tech-heavy Nasdaq index has increased by 42 percent and the broader S&P 500 by 15 percent.
However, apart from this, the rest of the American economy is still struggling. Many people have lost their jobs in December. Retail sales have also fallen in recent months and unemployment is also increasing.
Trump said that “our agenda was not about the Right or the Left, it was not about the Republicans or Democrats, but also about the good of one nation, which means the whole country.”
President Trump has left his office with a 34 percent approval rating, the lowest approval rating in US history so far.
In his 20-minute pre-recorded farewell speech, Donald Trump said that his administration did what he had come to power.
The promises he made and the work he did could be debated whether it was to build a wall at the 400 mile (640 km) border, tax cuts, and the appointment of a large number of judges, trade wars or the softening of the Middle East. Decisions like diplomatic agreements.
One thing Trump has definitely accomplished, when Trump presented his presidential candidacy in 2016, the biggest motive behind that was to change the current politics of the time. He kept saying that he was the “voice of outsiders” who did not believe in the current system and who believed that the government could not become their voice.
He said, “I have fought a tough and extremely difficult battles, took many hard decisions because you chose me to do so”.
A sample of the unrest and outrage that Trump triggered in the White House was shown two weeks earlier in the Capitol Hill crash. Who not only broke the building externally, but also hurt the soul of America. It will take both time and effort to recover.
Tradition and rules breaking in four years, Trump has radically changed the US government in these ways, rather than the expected behaviour from the President. Trump has at least fulfilled this promise.
What is Biden’s preparation?
Joe Biden left his home state of Delaware with his wife and reached Washington. Biden has lived as a senator in Delaware for 36 years. After this, he was the Vice President in the Obama government from 2008 to 2016.
In his emotional farewell speech, he said that Delaware would be written on my chest when I die.
On Thursday, he will go to the White House and then to Capitol Hill, that is Parliament, at 12 o’clock American time.
This will not be a common swearing-in. There are heavy security arrangements in Washington after the riots in Capitol Hill, thousands of National Guard have been deployed, and the White House is surrounded by barbed wire.
This time very few people are allowed to visit the Capital Mall, whereas earlier thousands of supporters used to gather here. Trump will not attend the ceremony, he will fly to Florida on Wednesday morning and will become the first president who did not attend the swearing-in ceremony of the upcoming president.
