During the halftime segment of Monday’s College Football Playoff championship between Ohio State and Notre Dame, President Trump made a special appearance.
In a pre-taped statement, Trump remarked, “This has been an historic and exciting day for our country. In recent years our people have suffered greatly, but starting now we’re going to bring America and make it safer, richer and prouder than ever before.”
On that same day, Trump was sworn in as the United States’ 47th president in the Capital Rotunda.
During his halftime message, Trump emphasized that the United States “will stop wars and lead the world to peace,” adding, “We will be admired again, admired like we haven’t been in many, many years.”
