Trump’s 25-minute speech from West Palm Beach, Florida, emphasized his commitment to making America great again. “We have taken back control of the Senate… America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate,” Trump declared, as the crowd cheered and chanted “USA! USA!” ¹. This victory marks a significant shift in the political landscape, with Republicans and Democrats alternating control of the White House for the fourth consecutive term ¹.
