Trump Turns Power Over to Military/"We the People"

"Today's ceremony, however, has very special meaning. Because today, we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another, or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from Washington DC and giving it back to you, the People. For too long, a small group in our nation's capitol has reaped the rewards of government while the people have born the cost. Washington flourished, but the people did not share in it's wealth."
