My Fellow Americans: The Inaugural Addresses of the U.S. Presidents Yuvraj Singh

Donald Trump delivered his inaugural address on January 20th, 2017. For the 2nd time in the 21st century, a president who had not won the popular vote had won the electoral vote. The race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton was a contentious one and it was in many respects a presidency defined by the norms it broke. On January 6th, 2021, a mob broke into the Capitol Building in an attack stoked by the Presidents rhetoric, as well as those of others. Trump was twice impeached by the House of Representatives and, in the 2020 election, lost the electoral and popular vote to Joe Biden – who will be sworn in as the 46th President on January 20th, 2021.

Barack Obama delivered his second inaugural address on January 20th, 2013. Obama defeated Mitt Romney to win his 2nd term, which saw implementation of the ACA, a mounting and continued fight against climate change, and rapprochement with Cuba & Iran. It also saw the winding down of US forces in Afghanistan, though they still remain. His 2nd term saw more stalling as well, after Republicans took control of the Senate in 2014, eventually blocking him from nominating a Supreme Court Justice.

Barack Obama delivered his first inaugural address on January 20th, 2009. As the first Black president, Barack Obama was historic in more ways than one. His inauguration saw more than one million in attendance, the highest yet. He took the reins of the executive office at a perilous time, with the economy standing on the edge of a knife. Though the US clawed back safety, the Great Recession left an indelible mark on the country. His biggest achievement, the Affordable Care Act (popularly Obamacare) brought insurance to millions who didn’t have it.

George W. Bush delivered his second inaugural address on January 20th, 2005. Just as his first term was consumed with the terrorist attacks of 9/11, before 2005 was over, Hurricane Katrina hit. The Category 5 hurricane caused almost 2,000 deaths and more than $120 billion in damage. It was one of the worst natural disasters in United States in history and Bush received criticism for his response. Years later, the Great Recession began under his term. When he left, his approval rating was in the mid-20s.

George W. Bush delivered his first inaugural address on January 20th, 2001. His electoral win was a contentious won; though he won the electoral vote, he had lost the popular vote (Donald Trump would repeat that feat just 16 years later). But whatever the circumstances, they were quickly forgotten when just 8 months later, he would face the most trying task for his presidency – the terrorist attacks of 9/11. They would come to define the Bush presidency, as well as the beginning of the 21st century in the United States.

Bill Clinton delivered his second inaugural address on January 20th, 1997. The presidency of Bill Clinton helped shape the Democratic party into the 21st century. His image began to take a beating through the sexual misconduct investigations and subsequent impeachment, though his approval ratings remained surprisingly high. By the time he left office, it was in the mid-60s – beating out Reagan by a slim point.
