    Trump to Deliver Primetime Address Amid Economic and Political Turmoil

    President Donald Trump will deliver a primetime address from Capitol Hill on Tuesday night, framing his policies as the “Renewal of the American Dream.” His speech comes at a pivotal moment in his second term, as voters evaluate the impact of his aggressive economic and foreign policy agenda.

    In his first six weeks back in office, Trump has pushed rapid government overhauls, with billionaire ally Elon Musk slashing federal agencies and executive orders targeting cultural issues. His bid to broker peace between Ukraine and Russia has led to tensions with Kyiv, resulting in a freeze on U.S. aid. Meanwhile, the administration has imposed historic tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico, further shaking global trade.

    Trump now faces the challenge of rallying support for his policies, including extending his 2017 tax cuts and preventing a looming government shutdown. While his hardline approach has reshaped Washington, he must convince Congress and the public that his strategy is delivering results as economic concerns grow.
