US President Donald Trump<\/a> delivered his first address to Congress since returning to the White House on Tuesday, proudly declaring that \u2018America is back\u2019 to lawmakers in the Capitol.<\/p>\n

Delivering the longest speech by an American president in modern history, Trump used the opportunity to solidify his foreign and domestic policy agenda and heap scorn on his opponents, chiding Democrats for not applauding his \u2018astronomical achievements\u2019 since assuming office.<\/p>\n

Over the course of 99-minutes, Trump took the opportunity to list every single one of his achievements since his return to power on January 20, taking credit for everything from slashing the federal budget to renaming the Gulf of Mexico<\/a> to shaking up the trans-atlantic alliance over the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Here are the key takeaways from the speech which Trump promised would be like \u2018nothing that has ever been seen before\u2019:<\/p>\n
