Trump Marks Holocaust Remembrance Day by Vowing to Defend 'Love and Tolerance'

Craig Bannister | January 27, 2017

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Pres. Donald Trump made a solemn vow to dedicate his life to ensuring "the forces of evil never again defeat the powers of good."

The president's full statement, marking the Jan. 27, 2017 anniversary of the day in 1945 when Russian forces liberated the surviving prisoners of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp, follows:

“It is with a heavy heart and somber mind that we remember and honor the victims, survivors, heroes of the Holocaust. It is impossible to fully fathom the depravity and horror inflicted on innocent people by Nazi terror.

“Yet, we know that in the darkest hours of humanity, light shines the brightest.‎ As we remember those who died, we are deeply grateful to those who risked their lives to save the innocent.

“In the name of the perished, I pledge to do everything in my power throughout my Presidency, and my life, to ensure that the forces of evil never again defeat the powers of good. Together, we will make love and tolerance prevalent throughout the world.”
