“Members of Congress, the president of the United States,” Pelosi said, to cheers and applause.

Then, above the applause, a chant rose from the crowd. “Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!”

“Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you very much,” Trump responded. “Madam speaker, Mr. Vice president, members of Congress, the First Lady of the United States.”

The crowd cheered again, and as the applause died down, Trump began his speech. “And my fellow citizens, three years ago, we launched the great American comeback. Tonight I stand before you to share the incredible results. Jobs are booming. Incomes are soaring. Poverty is plummeting. Crime is falling. Confidence is surging. And our country is thriving and highly respected again.”
