President Trump Signs an Executive Order, Aug. 5, 2025

Published | Video Starts at 01:11

Had no idea that was going to happen. When we got it, I said, too bad I won't be President then, but sort of. We took a very circuitous route, didn't we? In my first term, we were instrumental in helping the city of Los Angeles win the bid to bring the Olympic torch back to American soil. And today, I'll sign an executive order establishing the White House Task force on the 2028 Summer Olympics, mobilizing the entire federal government to ensure the Games are safe, seamless, and historically successful. (01:11–01:20)
