- Trump saidThe Manila Timesmanilatimes.net/2026/07…
It is fitting,... that we ask ourselves hard questions even on a glorious day like today. Are the institutions under which we live working the way they should? Are the foundations laid in 1776 and 1789 still strong enough and sound enough to resist the tremors of our times? Are our God-given rights secure, our hard-won liberties protected?”
Mr President,... we live in times of uncertainty… we must never lose sight of our basic values, nor underrate the worth of what we know to be certain."
