Top 20 Economic Wins Under President Trump (January to December 2025)

Here’s a ranked list of the most significant economic achievements during Trump’s second term up to now, based on official data, White House reports, and key metrics. These highlight reversals from prior challenges, growth in key sectors, and policy-driven gains that resonate with conservative audiences. Keep In mind that President Trump is fighting not only the low lifes who are RINOS who lead both houses (Thune and Johnson) but also the Democrats and their media – as they still control well over 95% of all media.
