“Trump Got It Done,” by Jack T. Adams, Part 1 of 2

President Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States, made a profound impact during his presidential term from 2017 to 2021. His accomplishments were numerous and far-reaching. Notably, he enacted significant tax reform legislation and skillfully negotiated multiple foreign policy agreements that prioritized fairness and reciprocity. Furthermore, he took proactive measures to address the opioid crisis, streamlined the immigration process, and reinforced crucial alliances with key international partners.

President Trump’s foreign policies were dedicated to promoting global peace, stability, and prosperity, which resulted in significant breakthroughs in Middle East peace negotiations, and his historic efforts fostered peace and friendship between the U.S. and Korea. In 2019, he signed the PACT bill into law, preventing cruelty to animal-people and making abuse to animal-people a federal felony punishable by fines and up to seven years of incarceration. For his compassion and leadership in this regard, Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) presented His Excellency Donald J. Trump the Shining World Peace Leader Award and Shining World Leadership Award for Compassion.

“I ran for President because I knew there were towering new summits for America just waiting to be scaled. I knew the potential for our nation was boundless as long as we put America first.” President Donald J. Trump achieved numerous accomplishments during his term. The book enumerates a multitude of these achievements, highlighting his deep love for his country and its citizens as he tirelessly worked to enhance the nation. One standout accomplishment is his tax relief for working and middle-class Americans. One of his most significant achievements in this field was the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which put more money into the pockets of millions of American families. This legislation marked the largest tax reform package in US history. Other key features of President Trump’s tax reform policies included doubling the standard deduction and the child tax credit, making life easier for parents as they provided for their children.

Another significant benefit from President Trump’s tax reform was the reduction in the corporate tax rate. Prior to the reform, the US corporate tax rate stood at a relatively high 35%, placing the United States at a significant disadvantage in the global economy. However, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act brought it down to a more competitive 21%, resulting in numerous benefits for American businesses. Over 400 companies announced wage increases, new hires, or new investments in the United States, benefiting more than six million American workers with wage increases and other perks. In addition, in 2018, companies returned approximately US$665 billion of overseas profits. In November 2019, the US unemployment rate had dropped to 3.5%, marking the lowest rate in half a century.
