At inauguration, Trump vows new ‘golden age’: ‘I was saved by God to make America great again’

President Donald Trump credited God with his survival of two assassination attempts and promised to bring the United States into a “golden age” that “increases our wealth” and “expands our territory” during his inaugural address on Jan. 20.

After referring to his inauguration day as an American “liberation day” from the past four years of President Joe Biden, Trump expressed his hope “that our recent presidential election will be remembered as the greatest and most consequential election in the history of our country.”

The newly inaugurated president invoked God several times during his speech, including his belief that God saved him from the assassination attempts on his life.

“Those who wish to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom and indeed to take my life,” Trump said.

“I felt then — and believe even more so now — that my life was saved for a reason,” the president said before invoking his campaign slogan: “I was saved by God to make America great again.”

Trump vowed that “the golden age of America begins right now” and outlined his plans for economic success, stronger border security, and American expansionism as part of his “America First” agenda.
