President Trump on Wednesday touted his economic agenda one day after Democrats won key victories in elections where voters said they were largely basing their decisions on the cost of living.

Trump traveled to Miami to deliver remarks at the America Business Forum, where he pointed to lower gas prices, dropping interest rates and investments from other countries as evidence that he was overseeing a booming economy, even though exit polls from Tuesday showed voters were sour on the subject.

The speech fell on the first anniversary of Trump's 2024 election victory.

“One year ago, we were a dead country. Now we’re a country that’s considered the hottest country anywhere in the world," Trump said.
