President Donald Trump gave a Farewell Address on Tuesday from the White House, the day before the inauguration of President-Elect Joe Biden.
“Four years ago we launched a great national effort to rebuild our country, to renew its spirit, and to restore the allegiance of this government to its citizens,” President Trump said.
“In short, we embarked on a mission to Make America Great Again for all Americans. As I conclude my term as the 45th President of the United States, I stand before you truly proud of what we have acheived together. We did what we came here to do – and so much more.”
President Trump extended thanks to his wife, Melania, daughter Ivanka, and his family, as well as his staff.
“Most of all I want to thank the American people, to serve as your President has been an honor beyond description. Thank you for this extraordinary privilege…this is a great privilege and a great honor.
“We must never forget that while Americans will always have our disagreements, we are a nation of incredible, decent, faithful, and peace-loving citizens who all want our country to thrive and flourish and be very successful and good.
“All Americans were horrified by the assault on our capital. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish as Americans. It can never be tolerated. Now more than ever we must unify around our shared values and rise above the partisan rancor and forge a common destiny,” Trump said.

Thank you president trump for all you’ve done for us! You’ll never be forgotten and will always be remembered as a great president especially for the jewish people. May you have much success in your future!
you can call him a great president but can i ask what good he has done for us jews other than move the embassy to isreal?
Yiddens memories really fade quicky when it comes to goyim (or yidden) doing us good. How ungrateful. HE and only HE helped rubashkin get freed from prison. And made peace between the arab countries like the UAE and Morocco with Israel. Forgot that?
Majority of non religious jewish americans are liberals and majority of non religious jewish americans are not concerned about the state of israel . Disclaimer; most and majority means not all but is a general classification. Also extremes are not good ,conservatives and liberals are both not good for jews. The jewish liberals and jewish conservatives should recognize that conservative ves and liberals have antisemitic radical thoughts towards jews
Oh my. Donald Trump lost the election? When did this happen ?
The Supreme Court was too afraid to even hear the Texas case and decide the merits or de-merits so it rejected it with a phony “standing” argument. Now if Texas has no standing for a president that affects them, no one has standing for anything ever.
A Great President
Biden is and will be the best presedent ever
What did biden accomplish in government all these years?Even if you don’t like trump,you have to be brainwashed to say biden will be the best president
In the face of evil.
Not too many ppl have the courage to do a fraction of what he did. And to b so hounded for it
Funny how seemingly every post on this website featuring #45 gets more comments than any other.
You should all be honest with yourselves, and just admit that you think about Donald more than the ebishter or his moshiach.
Take off the black hat and put on a red one, you will be happier and free from lying to everyone including yourselves.
I down-voted for the judgemental tone but even a broken clock is right sometimes. What is lacking is LEADERSHIP and people are craving a real leader. Not a hypocrite, not someone trying to shmooze you out of a buck, but somebody who tells it like it is and shows how to get a job done. Obviously the true leader we are lacking is Moshiach. Lihavdil, what President Trump brought was that inkling of a feeling that Israel was starting to become welcome in the world as opposed to always being beaten down publicly. Recognition of Jerusalem, peace agreements with Arab… Read more »
This is simply an observation that is actually desperate to avoid judgement.
Anyone can literally just see the number of comments on any post of this site with #45 as subject and without.
Go as far back as you like and you will see also the number of comments in comparison.
Also remember those rallies just a few weeks ago when yidden came together and went to manhattan to wave flags all together?? Was this all with the intention of doing kindess to our creator???
Immediate Teshuvah, immediate Redemption
Lol!
be honest with yourself and realize that you are also here commenting so put you feet down instead of saying others don’t care about moshiach and that they should switch their hats, stop being so superficial! if you here commenting own it! To try to attack others on their care for values, we have values and nobody will take them away, including you!
Have you been living under a rock the past 3+ months
I agree!
He was wonderful for the country,…. and wonderful to the Yidden.
So sad to see his last days be so controversial and confusing.
We will miss you Trump!! A true friend to the Jewish ppl!!
Very disgusting how our American citizens & civilians can let this happen.
W.E. N.E.E.D. D.O.N.A.L.D. T.R.U.M.P. B.A.C.K. אמן.
Biden???????
NO WAY.
What are we American citizens & civilians thinking????????
. America is supposed to be a great nation!!!!
We have less power and lessrights than we think
I’ve never been so happy to say goodbye
What you wish for
A great good true inspiring speech.
Good bye
You’ll be missed
Despite not agreeing or liking all of your policies and behaviors, I am forever grateful to your outstanding, special and loyal support of Eretz Yisrael!
And for pardoning Sholom Rubashkin too.
Thank you!
To those who voted down:
Are you upset with his support for Israel? Or for pardoning Sholom Rubashkin?
Whoever wrote this is saying CLEARLY that he/she doesn’t agree with everything he did, but is greatful for the good thing he has done.
I don’t understand anyone who voted down.
Self hating jews or miserable people
TBH moving the embassy to Jerusalem did NOTHING. It was all fluff. His policies and behaviors are much worse than the good that came from freeing Rubashkin (which was great!).
So the various peace treaties of the last few months are just “fluff”?
And besides TRUMP did none of it. He showed up to the party. His administration did it!
The Administration couldn’t do it without him, you’re hilarious
Hopefully we can return to calmer more civil times.
Until the plandemic,he was the greatest president
You think Biden would’ve/will do a better job??!
Best President ever! Thank you!
I think that was a very good speech. Thank you President Trump for the many great accomplishments that you did do for our country, and for the Jewish people. Like the above commentator wrote, I am deeply grateful for your loyal support for Eretz Yisroel and for pardoning Sholom Rubashkin, and I hope you will be rewarded and acknowledged and remembered for those very good deeds.
Does anyone have any idea how I could send a letter to Mr. Trump? I would like to thank him.
Send a letter to the White House, you probably won’t get a reply but doesn’t hurt to try. Go Trump!!!!!! One of the best presidents America has ever had!!!! Thanks you for all your hard work for America, and especially the Jewish people!!
We can all agree that President Trump did a lot of things that helped Israel and Jewish people. I am very grateful for that. I do hope that the Abraham Accords continue to grow and that other countries follow. It is possible that this may change the Middle East forever. Nevertheless, in many other regards Trump was a horrible president. Due to his attitude and lack of experience of dealing with Congress (since he was never a legislator), he was unable to get a lot of his ideas passed as law. His executive decisions can be undone just as easily… Read more »
Exactly! Just bc he was amazing for Israel and the peace in the middle east, has nothing to do with how good he was a president for America.
He may be amazing for Israel. He may have freed Rubashkin but that doesn’t automatically mean he was the best president ever for America
I do not understand all the praise for Trump. I feel that anyone that thinks he was so good is not looking at the whole picture. Do we not remember his comments after chancellorsville? He has spent the past four years playing to the right wing militia movements. The pandemic is not all his fault, but more than many Jews want to admit. There were warnings. (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/07/29/fact-check-2017-anthony-fauci-warned-potential-outbreak/5494601002/) He had a pandemic playbook. He lied and said the previous administration did not leave any. Later Mitch McConnell backtracked and kind of said there was one. Just Trump did not want to… Read more »
the comments where he specifically said that he condemns the neo-Nazis, but which people like you try to twist into support for them?
Most defnitely mchasidei umos haolom.
A Great President.
