(ETH) – President Donald Trump gave his final farewell message today in which he delivered a 20-minute farewell address expressing his gratitude for having served as the 45th commander-in-chief and urged Americans to come together in prayer for President-elect Joe Biden and for the continued success of the country.

The president said he is “truly proud of what we have achieved together,” adding, “We did what we came here to do — and so much more.” “This week,” he continued, “we inaugurate a new administration and pray for its success in keeping America safe and prosperous.”

“We extend our best wishes,” Trump said, referring to Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris. “And we also want them to have luck — a very important word.” Trump has stated that he will not be attending Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday but stressed that the “greatest danger” ahead for Americans

“is a loss of confidence in ourselves, a loss of confidence in our national greatness.” “A nation is only as strong as its spirit,” Trump said. “We are only as dynamic as our pride. We are only as vibrant as the faith that beats in the hearts of our people. No nation can long thrive that loses faith in its own values, history, and heroes — for these are the very sources of our unity and our vitality.”
