President Donald Trump¹ officially kicked off his reelection campaign Tuesday at a Florida rally.

 

本周二，特朗普在佛罗里达州一场集会上正式开始竞选连任活动。
 

 

At the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida, Trump reminisced about his 2016 campaign, describing it is as a "great political movement" and "a defining moment in American history."

 

And he said he had fundamentally upended Washington, staring down "a corrupt² and broken political establishment" and restoring a government "of, for and by the people."

 

Vice³ President Mike Pence offered a more direct pitch.

 

"We're here for one reason and reason only: America needs four more years of President Donald Trump," he said, prompting a "Four more years!" chant.

 

"It's on," Pence added. "Time for round two."

 

Of course, Trump never really stopped running. He officially filed for re-election on January 20, 2017, the day of his inauguration⁴, and held his first 2020 rally in February, 2017, in nearby Melbourne, Florida.

 

He has continued holding his signature "Make America Great Again" rallies in the months since, while also raising millions to fund a more professional, far larger campaign operation, with about 80 staffers now working at the campaign's Virginia headquarters, in New York and in key states across the country.
