“It has been only one year since President Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, yet the difference could not be clearer. After four years of failure under Joe Biden and the Democrats, America is once again strong, prosperous, and secure.

 

“Under Joe Biden and a Democrat-run Congress, families across the country were struggling. Inflation was at its highest level in 40 years. Gas, groceries, and everyday necessities were stretching families’ pocketbooks. Our borders were overrun by millions of illegal immigrants pouring into American communities, and our enemies took advantage of a weak administration…

 

“Trump also promised to bring down prices, and he is delivering. Gas prices fell in December to their lowest level since 2021 and are expected to keep falling. Rent increases are at their lowest level in years and mortgage rates have dropped…

 

“At home, Trump has secured the border and ended Biden’s border crisis on day one. Despite Biden claiming there was nothing he could do to stop the flood of illegal aliens coming into our country, zero illegal aliens were released into the United States for seven consecutive months. 

 

“The President of law-and-order is back, and the United States is on track for the largest one-year decline in murders on record. Trump moved swiftly to combat the fentanyl crisis by securing the border, eliminating narcoterrorists, and designating fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.

 

“One year in, Trump has already done what many presidents fail to do in eight: restore American strength, lower costs, secure the border, and put working families first. With three more years ahead, the best is yet to come. America is back, and under Trump’s leadership, we are just getting started.”
