President Trump Just Addressed Congress For The First Time- Here’s What He Said

I will not allow the mistakes of recent decades past to define the course of our future

From the Daily Caller:

“Tonight, as we mark the conclusion of our celebration of Black History Month, we are reminded of our nation’s path toward civil rights and the work that still remains to be done,” Trump began. “Recent threats targeting Jewish community centers and vandalism of Jewish cemeteries, as well as last week’s shooting in Kansas City, remind us that while we may be a nation divided on policies, we are a country that stands united in condemning hate and evil in all its forms.”

“Each American generation passes the torch of truth, liberty and justice in an unbroken chain all the way down to the present,” he said. “That torch is now in our hands. And we will use it to light up the world. I am here tonight to deliver a message of unity and strength, and it is a message deeply delivered from my heart. A new chapter of American greatness is now beginning, a new national pride is sweeping across our nation, and a new surge of optimism is placing impossible dreams firmly within our grasp. What we are witnessing today is the Renewal of the American spirit. Our allies will find that America is once again ready to lead.”

“All the nations of the world, friend or foe, will find that America is strong, America is proud, and America is free. In nine years, the United States will celebrate the 250th anniversary of our founding, 250 years since the day we declared our independence. It will be one of the great milestones in the history of the world. But what will America look like as we reach our 250th year? What kind of country will we leave for our children? I will not allow the mistakes of recent decades past to define the course of our future.”  read more

  1. My Wife and I watched the whole thing from beginning to end and were both impressed and moved, and she will tell you, I never sat thru more than a few minutes of that stuttering, arrogant, maladroit, Marxist Muzlim Mallard´s rambling lies!
    
Last night´s speech demonstrated to anyone with a brain the stunningly, stark difference between a real leader leader calling for unity, patriotism, strength and common sense, and a disingenuous, far Left radical Communist-Organizing democRat attempting to Cloward-Piven our country into the dust bin of history!
    All this whining on the part of the MSM (and the Zombies that listen to them) about President Trump´s failures BEFORE he was inaugerated and BEFORE he has even had a chance to really do anything tells me everything I need to know about them. How anyone could just sit on their partisan hands and not applaud things to help the average, hard-working, over-taxed payers in this country is disgraceful and appalling! A POX on them and everything they stand for, and if anyone is at all wondering just exactly what they do stand for, just look at the last eight years chock full of corruption, scandal and absolute, leader-less Suck!

    As Bella Pelosi said, and I quote: “Embrace the suck”

    NO MORE!!
    Make America Great Again!

  2. Nice to see the Progs self-identify, it would be a shame to have to make them wear an armband with a red star.
    Where were the pointy witch hoods, errr, hats?
    I want to know which moonbat thought this was a grand idea?

  3. “I will not allow the mistakes of recent decades past to define the course of our future.”

    one great line and slam at the political class all at the same time.

    the dems of course showed their true colors which are not red, white and blue but just red.

  4. When President Trump said

    “To any in Congress who do not believe we should enforce our laws, I would ask you this question:”

    I hoped he would say “…would you please get out of Congress?”
