\u201cMy fellow East Texans, thanks to President Trump, America is strong again. In tonight\u2019s joint address, President Trump delivered a clear message of increased liberty and a promise of an abundant life for every American,\u201d he said. \u201cHis vision is simple: return power to the people and ensure that all Americans can pursue life, liberty, and happiness. In short, he made clear that the American Dream is still available.\u201d<\/p>\n
