Letter to the editor: President Donald Trump’s extraordinary accomplishments
The most secure border in history.
Achieved the lowest murder rate in 125 years and the largest drop in violent crime in history.
Signed the largest tax cuts in history. From President Donald Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts Act, the average taxpayer will see nearly $4,000 in tax savings in 2026.
Secured $19.2 trillion in new global investments in the U.S. per the Dept. of Commerce.
More Americans working today than ever before. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent touted more than 1 million private-sector jobs created. The Atlanta Fed Wage Growth Tracker showed a 5% wage increase for those changing jobs.
Brought the flow of deadly fentanyl coming across the border down 60%.
Secured Most Favored Nation agreement to reduce the cost of many prescription drugs by 300% to 600%.
Terminated the Green New Scam and ended the EV mandate.
Banned men from playing women’s sports.
Launched Trump Accounts, giving newborn children $1,000.
Real median household income in the U.S. hit an all-time record high of $87,460 in 2025 according to official U.S. Census Bureau data.
Inflation is 3.4% under Trump. At the same 19 month point in the Biden administration, inflation was 8.3%.
Trump unveiled a $15 Billion Iowa Steel Project predicted to create 1,750 permanent jobs paying $49/hour.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, overall consumer prices increased approximately 13.2% during Biden’s first 19 months compared with approximately 5.4% during Trump’s first 19 months. Most notables below:
Gasoline: Biden +68.1% | Trump +30.6%
Fuel oil: Biden +91.6% | Trump +42.7%
Natural gas service: Biden +48.0% | Trump +8.3%
Electricity: Biden +23.2% | Trump +10.0%
The Fake News has created a false narrative, that our economy is doomed. The numbers prove otherwise. Once the war in Iran is over, which is very soon, our energy prices will plummet. The result: Your children and grandchildren will never face nuclear annihilation.
The Golden Age is upon us. We are just getting started. A September 2026 Gallup Poll reports 65% of Democrats support Socialism. Don’t let them take it all away. Vote wisely.
