Summary

New United States President Donald Trump declared a "new golden age" for America in an inauguration speech that defiantly set out his vision for his next four years at the White House. Will he fulfill his promises and how different will this presidency be to his last? Continuing Power Play's daily coverage of the World Economic Forum in Davos, host Anne McElvoy surveys the impact of the speech on U.S. politics and beyond. She talks to POLITICO's global editor-in-chief John Harris, who arrived in Switzerland from Washington just before the new president took his oath of office. She's also joined by Ryan Lizza, POLITICO's chief Washington correspondent and writer of the magazine, to chew over the speech and its reverberations around Washington.
