Trump is set to deliver a nationwide address on Thursday, possibly unveiling New Year policies

BlockBeats News, December 17th. President Trump announced on social media that he will deliver a primetime address to the nation on Wednesday night at 9 p.m. Eastern Time (Thursday morning at 10 a.m. Beijing Time). The speech comes at a critical moment as Trump's first year back in the White House draws to a close, with his approval rating slipping and the economy facing headwinds.

Over the past year, Trump has focused on reshaping America's economic and national security relationships. He imposed tariffs on trade partners and key industries and engaged in heated disputes with allies on defense spending, immigration, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Domestically, he has continuously tested the limits of executive power, restructured the federal government, and conducted large-scale deportations of undocumented immigrants while tightening legal immigration channels.

This speech provides Trump with a platform to highlight his achievements and clarify next year's priorities as the Republican Party aims to retain control of Congress in next year's midterm elections. Midterm elections usually result in a reduction of congressional seats for the president's party. The White House has indicated that Trump will speak about his historic accomplishments, discuss future prospects, and may preview new year policies. (Oriental Fortune)
