The Mike Hosking Breakfast Amber Duke: The Spectator Washington Editor on Donald Trump's inauguration as US President
Donald Trump has been sworn in as the 47th President of the United States.
In his speech he said that "America's decline is over" and the "golden age of America begins right now".
He says America will not be intimidated, will not be broke, and will not fail in becoming a free, sovereign and independent nation, with a colour-blind and merit-based society.
The returning US President is pledging to be a "peace maker and unifier" while building strongest military ever seen.
He says their power will stop all wars and bring a new spirit of unity to a world that has been angry, violent and totally unpredictable.
Trump says the US will pursue its manifest destiny into the stars, launching American astronauts to plant the Stars and Stripes on the planet Mars.
Washington Editor of the Spectator, Amber Duke told Ryan Bridge his speech was really ahistorical in how detailed and specific he was about his policy priorities on his first day of office.
