Part 2/12:
The President detailed efforts to restore the grandeur of the White House and the Oval Office, noting that these symbols of American heritage had fallen into disrepair but are now shining once again as befits their significance. He reflected on the state of the nation a year prior, describing it as "dead" and in decline, but now asserting America has become "the hottest country anywhere in the world." This resurgence is attributed largely to the outstanding work of his cabinet.
