Donald Trump lists 25 administration achievements ahead of midterms

President Donald Trump has released a list of 25 achievements via Truth Social ahead of the upcoming November midterm elections. The list covers a wide range of domestic and foreign policy areas, including immigration, the economy, crime, and national defense.

Key claims made by the president include achieving the most secure border in history with zero illegal admissions in the last 16 months, and signing the Laken Riley Act. He also asserted that the US murder rate has reached its lowest level in 125 years. On economic matters, Trump highlighted the 'Great Big Beautiful Bill' which includes tax cuts for tips, overtime, and Social Security benefits, as well as securing $19.2 trillion in new investment commitments. He also cited the imposition of historic tariffs on foreign steel, aluminum, copper, and automobiles to bolster American manufacturing.

Regarding foreign policy and defense, Trump claimed the administration obliterated Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and made a $1 trillion investment in the US Armed Forces this year. Additionally, he noted that the stock market has reached 80 all-time record highs since the election.

Separately, Trump has proposed constructing a massive Triumphal Arch in Washington, D.C., near Arlington National Cemetery. He stated the structure would serve as a high-tech military complex designed to house and rapidly deploy drones and snipers, as well as store significant quantities of ammunition. The proposal has faced criticism regarding its impact on the city's historic landscape and views of other monuments.
