I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as president, I must put the interests of America first. Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon…

Therefore, I shall resign the Presidency effective at noon tomorrow.

May God's grace be with you in all the days ahead.
