ROCKY MOUNT, NC December 19, 2025 – President Donald J. Trump addressed a packed crowd of enthusiastic supporters in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, on Friday evening, delivering a lengthy speech focused on his America First agenda, economic promises, and criticisms of past administrations.
Trump emphasized themes of economic populism, border security, and energy independence, rallying the crowd with calls to “make America great again.” The speech came amid ongoing discussions in Washington about recently released Jeffrey Epstein-related documents from the Department of Justice, which have sparked widespread public debate.
While Trump did not directly address the Epstein files during his remarks, some attendees and online commentators noted the timing, with reactions ranging from calls for further accountability to frustrations over priorities in the early days of his second term.
The official Rapid Response account for the Trump administration shared video of the event on X (formerly Twitter), captioning it: “WATCH IN FULL: President Donald J. Trump delivers remarks in Rocky Mount, North Carolina.”
This appearance underscores Trump’s continued engagement with his base as he prepares for his inauguration on January 20, 2026, following his decisive victory in the 2024 election.
The rally highlighted Trump’s enduring popularity among core supporters, with the crowd’s energy captured in widely circulated images and videos from the event.
