“We are a nation in decline,” he said. “We are here tonight to declare that it does not have to be this way.”

Donald’s daughter Ivanka, released a statement after the announcement, saying that she does not plan to be involved in his campaign.

“While I will always love and support my father, going forward I will do so outside the political arena,” she said in a statement.
