Trump One Year Into His Second Term: Unprecedented Achievements in Security, Economy, and Immigration
Following a year since his return to the White House on January 20, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump asserted that his administration has achieved unprecedented milestones, surpassing any previous administration in modern history in terms of security, economy, and diplomacy.
During a press conference held at the White House to review the accomplishments of the first year of his second term, Trump highlighted the unprecedented results achieved by his administration, emphasizing progress in conflict resolution, enhancing security, and controlling immigration.
The American president noted the record of negative net migration for the first time in nearly fifty years, along with a historic drop in the number of homicides in the United States. The White House reported that over 2.6 million undocumented migrants left the country, either through deportation or voluntary departure.
An official statement clarified that authorities carried out over 650,000 arrests, detentions, and deportations, including more than 400,000 individuals who had previously been tried or convicted of criminal offenses.
In terms of domestic security, the United States recorded the largest annual decrease in homicides, alongside a significant decline in violent crimes, with a 6% decrease in sexual assaults and a 19% reduction in aggravated assaults, as part of a comprehensive strategy to combat organized and transnational crime.
On the economic front, the White House announced the creation of 654,000 jobs in the private sector, with real GDP growth hitting 4.3% in the third quarter of 2025, and inflation decreasing to 2.4%.
The statement also pointed to improvements in purchasing power, with weekly wages in the private sector rising by 4%, outpacing inflation, and real income increasing by an average of $1,100 annually.
The U.S. administration confirmed securing approximately $10 trillion in domestic investments aimed at relocating industries and strengthening the manufacturing sector, alongside rising energy production and reducing federal bureaucracy, which yielded savings of around $215 billion.
Internationally, the White House highlighted the role of American diplomacy in facilitating and signing several peace and ceasefire agreements, particularly in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.
During the first year of his term, President Trump signed 228 executive orders, which the White House regarded as evidence of the swift and organized implementation of government priorities.
