Trump’s First-Term Beneficiaries

As President, I, Donald Trump, would highlight the following examples of people I helped during my first term:

• Business Owners: I would point to the numerous small business owners who benefited from my administration’s tax cuts and deregulation policies. For instance, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) lowered corporate tax rates, allowing businesses to retain more profits and invest in growth. This helped entrepreneurs like:
  • Bob Parsons, founder of GoDaddy, who praised the tax reform, saying it allowed him to hire more employees and increase wages.
  • Chris Kemp, CEO of Nebula, a cloud computing company, who credited the tax cuts for enabling him to expand his business and create new jobs.

• Veterans: My administration’s efforts to improve veterans’ healthcare and benefits would be showcased, including:
  • The VA Accountability and Transparency Act (2017), which held VA employees accountable for poor performance and misconduct, benefiting veterans like John, a veteran who finally received timely and effective treatment for his service-connected injuries.
  • The expansion of telehealth services, allowing veterans like Sarah, who lived in a rural area, to access medical care more conveniently and reduce her wait times.
• Families Affected by Natural Disasters: I would highlight the support provided to families devastated by hurricanes, wildfires, and other disasters, such as:
  • The Trump administration’s swift response to Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, including deploying federal personnel, providing aid, and supporting recovery efforts, which helped families like the Rodriguezes, who lost their home but received critical assistance to rebuild.
  • The efforts to support families affected by wildfires in California, like the Smiths, who received temporary housing and financial assistance to help them recover from the loss of their home.

• Minority Communities: My administration’s initiatives to promote economic opportunity and reduce poverty in minority communities would be emphasized, including:
  • The Opportunity Zones program, which encouraged investment in low-income areas, benefiting communities like the African American neighborhood in Detroit, where new businesses and jobs were created.
  • The expansion of apprenticeship programs, which helped minority youth like Jamal, who gained valuable skills and training in the construction industry.

These examples demonstrate my commitment to helping Americans from all walks of life during my first term as President.
