The Donald Trump Inaugural Address photo captures the moment the 45th U.S. President delivered his 'American Carnage' speech on January 20, 2017. Beyond its political significance, the image quickly became a viral sensation due to the dramatic staging and the heated public debate regarding the ceremony's attendance numbers. In the meme world, this template is frequently used to represent someone making an overly serious, grandiose, or controversial announcement to a large (or perhaps imaginary) audience. It is often paired with captions that parody 'America First' rhetoric or apply the gravity of a presidential address to trivial, everyday complaints.
