Part 4/7:
Trump's Inaugural Address: A Call to Power
As Trump delivered his inaugural speech, he immediately set a combative tone, labeling the outgoing administration's policies as disastrous. Stewart took note of the hyperbolic language, particularly when Trump seemed to mispronounce "decline," leading to a humorous breakdown of the implications behind his choice of words.
The speech's underlying message of reclamation and revitalization hinted at a narrative familiar to Trump's supporters. Stewart seized on the contrast between Trump's proclamations of national rebirth and the grim realities painted by his administration's past.
