"Sunlight is pouring over the entire world," President Donald Trump proclaimed loftily, promising a speech focused on unity during his inauguration as the 47th president of the US. Despite initial indications of a more unifying message, Trump’s words soon revealed an unchanged agenda, including deterring immigration and criticizing certain policies. His approach reflects a continued, yet reshaped, perspective rather than a complete transformation of his presidency."
Arwa Mahdawi noted that despite attempts at promoting unity and proposing common goals, Trump's speech contradicted itself by threatening foreign sovereignty over the Panama Canal and touting extreme immigration policies. This juxtaposition of promises with aggressive, divisive rhetoric characterizes Trump's signature approach, suggesting that the emphasis on collaboration was superficial, masking underlying hardline positions that remain deeply divisive among the populace.
