"American Carnage" was an incredible line from his first inauguration, blaming the generations of leadership that were seated behind him. A lot of the criticism of his 2024 run was that he'd lost that original fire.
This time his speech was twice as brutal as American Carnage. He proclaimed Biden's tenure as weak, feckless, and incompetent all but in name, as Biden sat dumbfounded just four feet away, and laid out specific policies that would destroy every initiative they took in the last four years.
Trump's still got it, he was just keeping his powder dry.
"It will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female."
About damn time.
Reality can be denied but it can't be ignored
It was a great speech.
I loved that he directly eviscerated Biden's failed Presidency in front of him
Loved him saying there are only two genders and directly calling out transgender ideology
Biden fucking deserved it. I hope he was coherent enough to understand exactly how much of an ineffectual failure he was as president.
It was early enough in the day for him to know where he was.
I am excited to see the United States military deployed to the border for the express purpose of repelling invasion. I am tired of being invaded.
The pictures of illegals crying because they weren't going to get into the country was the cherry on top
I need a link so I can partake in this joy as well.
There's a bunch on Twitter but here's the most common one being shared around

Beautiful.
These people deserve all the misery the world can muster.
Noooo you don't understand, the US military has to be deployed to Iran so they can fight the illegal aliens there and not here
He should have addressed the fact that for 4 years the executive branch was not run by an executive-in-chief but an informal committee of unelected personal assistants.
The only real eyebrow-raise was invoking a law from 1789. Trump's been blocked out by random Hawaiian judges before for invoking older laws.
If he signed 200 executive orders today, I expect 1000 lawsuits from leftist orgs tomorrow. Only a fraction of them are going to survive the week before they are held on injunction. Leftists are way too well organized for this to slide.
This is Trump's second term. He has seen all those tactics already and likely taken that into account. How he has is the question but he isn't foolish enough to fall for that same trick in the same way.
Kamala's entire run has shown pretty well that they aren't that well organized, they are just able to run almost entirely unopposed and unquestioned the majority of the time. The slightest pushback is enough to often unravel their entire structure, though their overwhelming power often makes it not seem that way.
If that happens, he could easily rescind the E.O., then issue it again. Meaning they'd have to file their petition again, pay court fees again, wait for a hearing date again, just for him to rescind and reissue again.
Ah yes, the "quick, pull our shitty lawsuit just before it gets to the discovery stage" tactic that Leftoids have been using for years. Time to use the process as punishment on them and let them enjoy a taste of their own medicine.
There are ''strategic legal teams'' right now working behind closed doors to split the workload among themselves to block absolutely everything with lawsuits at every step of the way for every executive order.
He all but named them in who he though was weak and useless. It was like Trump doing this to Biden and Kamala the entire speech lol.
We are so back.
2026 will be amazing.
He then gave out several orders and statements to make sure his speech was followed through. This will be an interesting time to watch as things move so quickly.
Added:
I'm thinking about Musk when he bought Twitter and changed it internally fast and hard. Will we see the same? Will we have the same results? Will people make fake countries that last a few months to show they're thwarting him? Will it be as stupid as CHAZ?
I can only hope team Trump really destroys the entire political class of this country and even beyond.
