President Donald Trump arrived in Miami on Wednesday, marking the anniversary of his reelection victory, to address the American Business Forum where he will highlight his administration’s economic achievements and global investment initiatives.
The Republican president is expected to outline his broader economic agenda, focusing on deregulation, energy independence, oil prices and affordability. According to a senior White House official, Trump will emphasize how foreign investments secured during his tenure have benefited U.S. communities.
His remarks come as Americans continue to express concern over the rising cost of living and job opportunities. A recent AP Voter Poll across four states found that voters remain uneasy about inflation despite Trump’s promises of economic revival.
The speech follows Trump’s recent five-day Asia tour, which included meetings in Malaysia, Japan and South Korea. During the trip, he met Chinese President Xi Jinping to ease trade tensions and announced several Japan-funded energy and technology projects benefiting the U.S.
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez praised Trump’s international efforts as “transformational,” calling the business forum a more accessible version of the World Economic Forum in Davos. The event brings together business leaders, policymakers and athletes for discussions on global economic challenges.
Miami has become a focal point in Trump’s second term. The city will host next year’s G20 summit at Trump’s Doral golf club, despite criticism over potential conflicts of interest. Trump has maintained that his family business will not profit from the event.
Miami is also among the host cities for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which Trump has promoted as a major showcase for the U.S. His administration has made the tournament’s success a top priority. FIFA President Gianni Infantino, a close associate of Trump, is also scheduled to speak at the forum later on Wednesday.
