Trump started his speech with the words: “America is back.” He continued: “The American dream is on the rise – bigger and better than ever. The American dream is unstoppable, and our country is about to see a comeback that the world has never seen before.”
Protest quickly stood out among the democratic MPs and senators. Shortly after the beginning of the speech, the democratic MP Al Green from the state of Texas was excluded from the meeting after he had called several boos against Trump. Trump had to briefly interrupt the speech during the incident.
