Trump signed largest tax cut in U.S. history.

Rent prices are DOWN for 5 straight months.

Gasoline in Oklahoma is available under $2.

Real wages gains are UP.

No tax on tips or overtime pay.

Trump has negotiated lower drug prices.

Not to mention on the national security front, President Trump delivered the MOST secure border in American history.

We have a lot more work to do, but after all 77 of 77 counties voted to send President Trump back to the White House, it's been 365 days of promises made, promises kept. I'm humbled to be in the fight alongside the Trump administration to Make America Great Again." - U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK).

BACKGROUND:

365 WINS IN 365 DAYS: PRESIDENT TRUMP'S RETURN ⬇️

  • Reduced illegal border crossings to their lowest level since the 1970s, completely eradicating the Biden-era invasion.
  • Delivered the largest one-year decline in homicides in U.S. history by launching targeted federal crime crackdowns and ending Biden-era non-enforcement.
