meet the candidate - Donald J. Trump

Donald J. Trump launched the most extraordinary political movement in history, dethroning political dynasties, defeating the Washington Establishment, and becoming the first true outsider elected as President of the United States.  His inspiring, groundbreaking campaign proved pollsters, pundits, prognosticators, and the corporate media spectacularly wrong.  He mobilized voters with massive rallies, reached America's hearts and minds with his vision for national rejuvenation, and overcame virtually every entrenched power structure—political and financial—and achieved a decisive victory, winning states no Republican presidential candidate had won in decades.

The forgotten men and women of America were forgotten no more because we finally had a President who put America First.

Through his pro-American policies on trade, taxes, energy, regulation, immigration, and healthcare, President Trump ushered in a period of unprecedented economic growth, job creation, soaring wages, and booming incomes.  Median household income reached its highest level ever recorded. Middle-class family income increased more than five times from the previous administration.  Unemployment reached its lowest rate in half a century. American unemployment from every ethnic background reached their lowest levels ever recorded - more Americans were employed than ever before.

President Trump boldly unleashed American energy, and our Nation soon became the world's number one producer of oil and natural gas in the world.  America's newfound Energy Independence not only meant historically low energy prices, but also bolstered our economic and national security.  At the center of this pro-American energy vision was a robust commitment to environmental conservation, renewable energy production, prioritizing the clean-up of major pollution sites, and investing billions in clean water infrastructure.  Under President Trump, America led the world in reducing carbon emissions.  As a steward of our natural resources, President Trump signed the Great Outdoors Act, the most significant investment in our national parks since Theodore Roosevelt's presidency and joined the One Trillion Trees Initiative to protect and restore one trillion trees by 2030.

As President, he was an unwavering champion for our Nation's heroes in uniform.  He always stood proudly with our Nation's extraordinary and courageous police officers, sheriffs, and law enforcement professionals.  He fought relentlessly for our Nation's military service members and invested trillions of dollars in the American Armed Forces to ensure our warriors had the tools, support, and resources they need.  He fundamentally reformed the Department of Veterans Affairs, ending the past era of scandal and ensuring our Nation's treasured Veterans were given the treatment and care they have earned and deserve.

Understanding that border security is national security, President Trump achieved the most secure border in United States history and signed a series of historic agreements with our partners in the Western Hemisphere to stop smuggling, trafficking, and illegal migration.  He fundamentally reformed the H-1B program to protect American workers and families.  He restored the principle that newcomers to our country must be financially self-sufficient.  He empowered Immigration and Customs Enforcement to dismantle criminal gangs and deport dangerous offenders who threaten our communities.  He ended systemic asylum fraud, reduced refugee admissions to sustainable levels, blocked the entry of terrorists and national security threats, and banned unsafe travel from regions where proper screening and vetting cannot occur.  No President has done more to build an immigration system that promotes safety, dignity, security, and prosperity for the American People.

By restoring America's prestige and advancing a policy of principled realism, he forged historic peace agreements in the Middle East, withdrew troops from endless conflicts, confronted oppressive communist and socialist regimes, advanced stability around the world, and strengthened the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and other international alliances and partnerships by getting other nations to contribute their fair share.

Whether it was fighting foreign terrorists, creating jobs, securing America's borders, unleashing American energy, revitalizing American patriotism, or restoring the American spirit, President Trump never wavered in defense of our values, our families, our traditions, and our freedom.

President Trump knows that as long as we remain faithful to our citizens, our country, and our God, then America's best days are yet to come.
