Oval Office Remarks Reinforce Trump’s Commitment to Fair Trade and Restoring American Strength
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a moment that blended humor, historical reflection, and hard-hitting political insight, President Donald J. Trump addressed the passing of former President Jimmy Carter during a Thursday press event in the Oval Office. His words quickly turned to the failures of the current administration—and how his America First economic policies are setting the stage for a historic comeback.
“Jimmy Carter died a happy person,” Trump said. “Because he is not longer the worst president. Joe Biden was.”
This powerful quote has already sparked major headlines—and for good reason. It not only underscores Trump’s unapologetic leadership style, but also draws a clear contrast between the Biden administration’s economic failures and Trump’s ambitious plan to rebuild U.S. manufacturing, defend American workers, and renegotiate global trade on our terms.
Carter Remembered, But Trump Looks Ahead
President Carter, who passed away in December 2024 at age 100, holds the distinction of being the longest-living U.S. president in history. A figure respected across party lines, Carter received a Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his humanitarian work after office—but remains widely remembered for economic struggles and diplomatic stumbles during his presidency.
Now, Trump says Carter can rest in peace—because Biden’s presidency has eclipsed even Carter’s most criticized moments.
Trump’s Tariffs and Trade Strategy: “We’re Taking in Historic Numbers”
During the presser, President Trump doubled down on his “reciprocal tariffs” initiative, calling it a game-changer for economic growth, U.S. industry, and fair trade deals.
“We’re going to see fantastic numbers. It’s happening already,” Trump said confidently. “We were treated very unfairly for years—but not anymore.”
The President also confirmed that dozens of countries are now reaching out to negotiate new trade agreements under the Trump administration’s terms—a significant shift from the one-sided globalist trade policies of previous presidents.
Italy’s Giorgia Meloni Joins Trump in Pushing Back Against EU Trade Imbalance
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni joined President Trump at the White House to move forward with a new U.S.–EU trade agreement, following Trump’s bold move to apply 20% tariffs on European imports.
While the European Union currently enjoys a 90-day pause at 10% tariffs, President Trump made it clear: “Fair trade is no longer optional—it’s required.”
Trump Blasts Biden, Praises American Resilience
Trump’s remarks weren’t just economic—they were deeply patriotic.
“We now have a real president—one that fights for the American worker and doesn’t bow to foreign interests,” he declared.
While critics in the media and Wall Street elites wring their hands over possible international backlash, Main Street America is applauding the President’s hard stance. Retirees, small business owners, and working-class families alike see this as long-overdue justice for decades of bad deals and political betrayal.
