The great comeback has has just become reality. Donald Trump reappeared in the Oval Office. He delivered his inaugural speech and signed into law his first decisions. He has put an end to the green deal and withdrew the United States from the WHO. He is on his way to put a stop to the anarchy of open borders that was slowly turning the United States from being a political entity to be reckoned with to becoming a cauldron of disorder, a pandemonium of gangs, lawless mob rule, and endless racial and gender-cum-sex hostilities; a cauldron of atomized individuals at each other’s throat over pronouns and bathrooms, over rights for the multiplying allegedly suppressed minorities and alleged privilege of the white majority. We might entertain a hope that also the American belligerent policing of the world and war-mongering will soon come to an end. That’s at least the hope that Donald Trump’s speech arouses.
Here are some of the best sentences that herald a new era in American history. We could only wish Europe had its own Donald Trump. Maybe one of these days it will.
① We have a government that has given unlimited funding to the defense of foreign borders, but refuses to defend American borders, or, more importantly, its own people.
② We will not forget our country. We will not forget our Constitution and we will not forget our God. Can’t do that.
③ We will begin […] the revolution of common sense.
④ Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens.
⑤ We will forge a society that is colorblind and merit-based. As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders: male and female.
⑥ We will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end and, perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into.
⑦ We will pursue our Manifest Destiny into the stars, launching American astronauts to plant the Stars and Stripes on the planet Mars.
⑧ We will stand bravely. We will live proudly. We will dream boldly […] because we are Americans.
