On a Saturday afternoon in Las Vegas, President Donald Trump took the stage at the Circa Resort & Casino to continue his post-inauguration tour.
After hours of anticipation, supporters eagerly gathered to hear his remarks, as the president reflected on his first week back in office and his ambitious plans for the country.
The scene was set for a victory lap as Trump stood before the crowd, highlighting one of his key promises: a groundbreaking tax overhaul that would remove taxes on tips.
This idea, which struck a chord especially in places like Las Vegas, home to many service industry workers, was a central part of Trump’s message to the crowd.
Trump’s Big Announcement on Tip Taxes and More
Trump’s promise to overhaul the taxation of tips caught the attention of many, including his political rival Kamala Harris, who quickly adopted the idea as part of her platform.
For the people of Nevada, it was particularly well-received.
The state, known for its bustling service industry, would stand to benefit greatly from such a policy change.
He also took time to thank the people of Nevada, reminiscing about the overwhelming win he secured in the state the previous November.
“It was a landslide,” he remarked, adding that the victory was a strong signal for the Democrats.
A Whirlwind First Week and International Applause
Trump’s first week in office was nothing short of action-packed.
Just days after his return to the White House, he made a bold move in Davos, where he addressed global leaders and executives.
There, he signed dozens of executive orders and outlined his “America First” vision.
His most striking move came when he pardoned 1,500 individuals convicted for their involvement in the January 6 Capitol attack.
According to Trump’s allies, the pace of his actions in the first days of his presidency was like a well-executed special forces raid, designed to take his opponents by surprise.
A National Tour and Major Policy Moves
From the get-go, it was clear that Trump intended to shake things up.
His first trip as president took him to North Carolina, where he surveyed damage caused by Hurricane Helene.
There, he met with families who had lost their homes and hinted at disbanding the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), questioning its effectiveness.
Trump then headed to California, where he met with Democratic leaders and toured an area devastated by wildfires.
Throughout these travels, he continued to push his policies and announce bold actions, such as the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history.
Fast Action and Strong Leadership
As Trump’s first 100 hours in office came to a close, his Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, emphasized the president’s fast-paced agenda.
“He’s done more in 100 hours than Biden did in 100 days,” Leavitt stated.
With more than 300 executive actions taken, Trump had made sweeping changes in areas like the economy, the border, and national security.
One of his major successes was securing the confirmation of Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense after Vice President J.D. Vance cast the deciding vote.
Trump praised Hegseth, calling him “a very good secretary of defense” in a statement.
A Busy Weekend Ahead
Following his event in Las Vegas, Trump was set to spend the remainder of the weekend at his Doral Club in Miami.
With the country’s eyes on his every move, it was clear that the first week of his second term had already set the tone for what would likely be a highly charged and dynamic presidency.
