Trump proposes starting term TWO MONTHS early at star-studded Mar-a-Lago bash with Sly Stallone
SUMMARY
At a star-studded Mar-a-Lago event, Donald Trump proposed an early start to his new term, suggesting to Speaker Mike Johnson that Congress pass a bill enabling him to assume office from November 5. Praised by actor Sylvester Stallone as a “mythical character” and the “second George Washington,” Trump thanked Stallone and joked about his close bond with Elon Musk, who later addressed the crowd, calling Trump’s win a “mandate for change.” Trump used the America First Policy Conference as a platform to introduce key Cabinet picks, including Doug Burgum for the Department of the Interior. Other attendees included Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Matt Gaetz, both nominated for top roles. Celebrating his election, Trump asserted his win as a people-powered victory, saying, “I didn’t win it, the people won it.” The event signaled Trump’s renewed commitment to advancing his agenda with strong congressional support.
