'To heal, we must remember.' Just hours before they are sworn into office, President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris took time to honor the more than 400,000 Americans who have died as a result of COVID-19.
pre-taped farewell address"We did what we came here to do – and so much more," Trump said, speaking from scripted remarks directly into the camera and standing behind a lectern with the presidential seal."This week, we inaugurate a new administration and pray for its success in keeping America safe and prosperous. We extend our best wishes, and we also want them to have luck -- a very important word.
Trump then condemned the riot at the Capitol and called on Americans to"unite around our shared values." "All Americans were horrified by the assault on our Capitol. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish as Americans. It can never be tolerated," Trump said. He warned that the greatest danger the country faces as he leaves office is"a loss of confidence in our national greatness" -- going on to talk about the shared"heritage" of the country under threat and condemning"political censorship and blacklisting."
"Now, as I prepare to hand power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning," he said, closing out the 20-minute farewell address.
