The moment was followed by chats of "USA" from those in attendance, with Trump as well as Vice President JD Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson joining in. That moment continued to receive a positive reaction from Republican and independent viewers, while Democrats remained neutral throughout.
"Every single day, we will stand up and we will fight, fight, fight for the country our citizens believe in and for the country people deserve"
Tuesday night’s joint address to Congress was Trump’s second, coming eight years after his first speech in Congress in 2017. The speech is structured similarly to a State of the Union Address, though Trump will not give the first official State of the Union of his second term in office until next year.

"Every single day, we will stand up, and we will fight, fight, fight for the country our citizens believe in and for the country people deserve," Trump added. "My fellow Americans, get ready for an incredible future, because the golden age of America has only just begun. It will be like nothing that has ever been seen before. Thank you. God bless you and God bless America."
