WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN AGE!
In this book by Todd Starnes—award-winning journalist, prolific author and host of NEWSMAX The Todd Starnes Show—you will discover how President Trump led the charge to restore our schools and our families, our sovereignty and our military; you will find lots of inspiration, encouragement, laughter, and a sense of hope—knowing that the best days of our country await our children and our grandchildren. It is time to celebrate the and continue to look towards the future.
THE GOLDEN AGE is a tribute to President Trump and his passionate love affair with the land of the free and the home of the brave. He saved the Republic. That will be his legacy. And he will go down as one of the greatest presidents in our history.
The Biden years were bleak…
But just as the American people thought all hope was gone, President Donald J. Trump arose from his palatial surroundings at Mar-a-Lago and announced that in 2024 he would wage a campaign to not just make America great again. He promised to user in the golden age of American history.
On Inauguration Day 2025 the president thundered a declaration that echoed inside the cavernous rotunda of the U.S. Capitol. He declared that the "golden age of America begins right now.”
“In recent years, our nation has suffered greatly. But we are going to bring it back and make it great again, greater than ever before,” the president declared. “We will stand bravely, we will live proudly, we will dream boldly, and nothing will stand in our way because we are Americans. The future is ours, and our golden age has just begun.”
Perseverance is a word that has defined the United States over the years. Franklin Roosevelt announcing to the nation about a day that would live in infamy. Walter Cronkite delivering a bulletin from Dallas, Texas. President George W. Bush standing on the pile of rubble at Ground Zero with a bullhorn. Americans have been tested as a people.
Yet in the midst of great tragedy, the United States has always found strength in Almighty God—defender and protector.
President Reagan said it best in 1984 when he told the nation that “the greatness of America doesn’t begin in Washington; it begins with each of you – in the mighty spirit of free people under God, in the bedrock values you live by each day in your families, neighborhoods, and workplaces.”
President Trump, too, understands that if we are truly going to return to The Golden Age, we must return to the faith of the Founding Fathers.
TRUMP LEADS AMERICA ONWARD…EVER ONWARD TO THE SHINING CITY UPON A HILL.
