In just one week, President Donald Trump has unleashed a torrent of economic victories, slashing costs and securing trade breakthroughs that cement our America First agenda.
On May 12, 2025, Trump signed a landmark executive order to cut prescription drug prices by up to 80%, leveraging the Most Favored Nation rule to match U.S. prices with the lowest globally. “Starting today, the U.S. will no longer subsidize the healthcare of foreign countries,” Trump declared, shattering Big Pharma’s profiteering grip.
Grocery prices dropped 0.4%, with egg prices plummeting 12.7%—the largest decline since 1984—easing burdens on American families.
Gas prices fell 7% returning to pre-Biden averages, driven by Trump’s deregulation of oil and gas production, boosting household budgets and fueling economic momentum.
On the trade front, Trump delivered a “breakthrough” U.K. trade deal on May 6, 2025, expanding market access, and brokered a China trade agreement, winning concessions in the U.S.-China trade war. These swift actions, alongside a stock market surge, underscore Trump’s relentless drive to restore American prosperity.
Beyond economics, Trump’s diplomatic triumphs shone. He secured the release of American hostage Edan Alexander from Hamas on May 12, 2025, negotiated ceasefires between India-Pakistan and the Houthis, and brokered a Ukraine-Russia meeting, showcasing global leadership.
Border crossings plummeted 93%, reflecting tightened immigration enforcement. These achievements, accomplished in mere days, signal a presidency moving at lightning speed to deliver for Americans.
