MELANIA/SECRET SERVICE/TRUMP FAMILY: “First, let me express my overwhelming gratitude for the love and support of our spectacular First Lady, Melania. Let me also share my deepest appreciation to my daughter Ivanka, my son-in-law Jared, and to Barron, Don, Eric, Tiffany, and Lara. You fill my world with light and with joy.
I also want to thank Vice President Mike Pence, his wonderful wife Karen, and the entire Pence family…
I also want to take a moment to thank a truly exceptional group of people: the United States Secret Service. My family and I will forever be in your debt…
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. And that’s what it is — a great privilege and a great honor.”
-Donald Trump, “Remarks by President Trump In Farewell Address to the Nation,” whitehouse.gov, Jan. 19, 2021
