WASHINGTON, DC – President Donald Trump announced that “Orange is the new orange!” would be America’s official slogan for the next four years.
The declaration came during his inauguration speech yesterday at the US Capitol, where Trump, flanked by gold-plated flags and a strategically placed bowl of oranges, explained the decision as “a brilliant, revolutionary, and totally Trump move.”
“America is tired of boring slogans like ‘E Pluribus Whatever,’” Trump declared. “We need something bold, something fresh, something… orange. It’s the color of success, the color of energy, and frankly, the color of me. No one understands orange better than I do. Believe me.”
Trump added that the slogan perfectly encapsulates his vision for the country, though he stopped short of explaining exactly what that vision entails.
Trump’s supporters are embracing the slogan with gusto. MAGA hats are being rebranded with neon orange stitching, and orange-themed rallies are reportedly in the works, complete with orange soda fountains and Tropicana Trump dance-offs.
As one enthusiastic fan put it, “If orange is the new orange, then America is the new America. It’s genius, really.”
