THE NEW GOLDEN AGE – President Trump took the stage with a hostile reporter to talk about his vision for the economy in Chicago. How did it go? He crushed it. He even received a standing ovation from the Chicago Economic Club.

The contrast between President Trump and Kamala Harris speaks for itself. Team Trump has the facts:

• Under Kamala, inflation has averaged 5.2% –  almost three times the average inflation rate under President Trump.
• Under Kamala, real average weekly earnings are down 3.4%. Under President Trump, real average weekly earnings increased 8.2%.
• Under Kamala, gas prices have averaged $3.49/gallon. Under President Trump, gas prices averaged $2.48/gallon.
• In Kamala's first three years, Americans saw a 1.3% increase ($1,050) in median household income. In President Trump's first three years, Americans saw a 10.5% boost ($7,690) in median household income – seven times larger.
• In Kamala's first three years, the personal savings rate fell from 19.3% in 2021 to 2.9% in 2024 – an 85% decrease. In President Trump's first three years, the personal savings rate rose from 5.3% in 2017 to 19.3% in 2021 –  a 264% increase.
• Under Kamala, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate increased by 120% between 2021 and 2024. Under President Trump, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate decreased by 32% between 2017 and 2021.
• Under Kamala, credit card delinquency skyrocketed by 54% between 2020 and 2024. Under President Trump, credit card delinquency fell by 11% between 2016 and 2020.

Kamala's inflationary policies sent prices soaring in the first place – and she'd double down if she's elected in November with the largest tax hike in history, a Soviet-style price control scheme, and a housing plan that will only drive home prices higher.

When Americans send him back to the White House, President Trump will turn the page on Kamala’s economic crisis and Make America Affordable, Prosperous, and Great Again.

• President Trump will end taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security benefits for seniors.
• He will Make America Energy Dominant to lower energy costs by 50% in his first year.
• He will make America the best place to do business, creating jobs in our country. And if companies don’t make it in America, they’ll pay a tariff. 

Under President Trump’s leadership, America will usher in the new golden age of American success!

WHAT MOTIVATES PRESIDENT TRUMP? – Why did President Trump get into politics? That was one of the topics covered during President Trump’s wide-ranging interview with “Bussin' With The Boys.” Check out @TrumpWarRoom for the must-see clips from this interview and all of President Trump’s events.

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CONCERT – In a special evening for everyone in Oaks, PA, President Trump turned his town hall in into a concert. See the thread here for his playlist.

KAMALA’S TAXPAYER-FUNDED SEX-CHANGE SURGERY FOR MURDERERS – The Washington Free Beacon is out with a horrifying new report about a transgender murderer referred to as the ‘Yacht Liller’ who got a taxpayer-funded sex-change surgery “thanks to Kamala Harris.”

From the Free Beacon:

• “Sitting on death row in 2009, John Jacobson Jr., known as the ‘Yacht Killer,’ talked about murdering married couple Thomas and Jackie Hawks to obtain the money for a sex-change surgery. Five years earlier, Jacobson lured the Hawkses onto their boat off the California coast, tied them to the vessel's anchor, and threw them overboard before grabbing a beer from the fridge and starting to fish.”
• “Last year, Jacobson’s dreams came true when California taxpayers footed the bill for his gender transition surgery, a move made possible thanks to policies and precedents set during Kamala Harris’s time as the state’s attorney general.”
• “‘I did receive gender affirming surgery and breast augmentation on April 5th 2023,’ Jacobson, who now goes by Skylar Deleon, wrote in a letter to the Washington Free Beacon. That letter was sent in response to a Free Beacon inquiry into the status of his transition. Jacobson said he is now awaiting transfer to a women's prison from San Quentin.”
• “Harris's support for inmates like Jacobson emerged as a campaign issue when a CNN report revealed that she pledged in a 2019 ACLU questionnaire to support taxpayer-funded sex-change surgeries for illegal immigrants and prisoners in federal custody.”
• “When another inmate, Rodney Quine, who was serving a life sentence for murder, filed a similar lawsuit amid the state's battle with Norsworthy, Harris negotiated a settlement in which the state paid for Quine's sex-change surgery and hundreds of thousands of dollars in attorneys' fees. Quine made no concessions to force the state's hand.”
• “In a 2019 interview with the National Center for Transgender Equality, Harris said she ensured that California changed its policy ‘so that every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access to the medical care that they desired and need.’”
