Elements of Donald Trump's Presidential Agenda Revealed in His Candidacy Announcement Speech

• http://www.ronpaulinstitute.org, by Adam Dick

The first half of Trump's speech was largely consumed with talk about other matters including criticism of President Joe Biden, promotion of Trump's past presidency, discussion of the 2022 midterm election, predictions of particular goals to be accomplished due to undefined actions he would pursue as president, and rhetorical flourishes.

Then, in the second half of the speech, Trump addressed what he termed "just the beginning of our national greatness agenda" that he would seek to implement should he assume the presidency in after the 2024 election.

Below are Trump's comments from the speech outlining aspects of that presidential or "national greatness" agenda.

Regarding the economy, Trump said "we will build the greatest economy ever" after the Biden administration had "destroyed" the US economy. In particular, Trump said he would take action to reduce inflation to one percent. He also declared, "On day one we will end Joe Biden's war on American energy."
