Year In Review: Trump’s Successful 2017

President Donald Trump's first year in office can perhaps be best summed up with a promise he made during his inaugural address.

“We are transferring power from Washington, D.C., and giving it back to you, the people,” Trump said.

This belief—that power belongs to the people—has been a guiding thread through his presidency so far.

Whether Republican or Democrat, no other president in recent decades has pursued the reform and change of course in regard to the American people that Trump has.
