During his speech, Trump touched upon a wide range of topics, including the nation’s economy, the administration’s immigration policies and trade approaches, and his efforts to remake federal courts, reports Xinhua news agency.
He also lashed out at, among other things, his political opponents, some mainstream media, and the Russia probe, which concluded in March. Trump was elected the 45th President of the US in 2016, after defeating Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
