President Trump on Saturday touted his administration’s accomplishments during his first year in office on the one-year anniversary of the inauguration.
In a rare op-ed for The Washington Examiner, Trump boasted about the U. S. economy and military, arguing he has enacted policies and changes that live up to the promises he made to the American people.
“We are putting America first, making real change in Washington, and creating opportunities for all of our people. From coast to coast, there is a renewed spirit,” Trump wrote. “Our country is roaring back more quickly than anyone could have predicted. The American Dream is real again.”
It also comes after the release of a controversial book earlier this month, “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” which roiled Washington, D. C. with various shocking details about the administration.
Trump in the editorial pointed to the Republican tax overhaul passed last year, his administration’s work on the opioid epidemic, and its success in the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq & Syria (ISIS) as accomplishments in the first year of his tenure.
“Americans are living in communities that are safer, stronger, healthier, and more secure,” the president said. “We are rooting out violence and restoring the rule of law.”
Trump also invoked his signature slogan from the 2016 campaign, which he often still uses on Twitter.
“After one year, I am proud to report to the American people that we truly are making America great again – for all Americans!” he said.
