Washington, D.C. – President Trump’s Truth Social post on May 6, 2025, hinting at a “major trade deal” with a “big, and highly respected, country,” has sent ripples through conservative circles, with the New York Times confirming it’s with the United Kingdom, per nytimes.com []. The announcement, scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on May 8 in the Oval Office, is seen as a triumph of Trump’s economic strategy, proving his tariffs are a powerful negotiating tool.
Trump wrote, “Big News Conference tomorrow morning at 10:00 A.M., The Oval Office, concerning a MAJOR TRADE DEAL WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF A BIG, AND HIGHLY RESPECTED, COUNTRY. THE FIRST OF MANY!!!” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is also engaging Chinese officials in Switzerland, while India talks continue despite regional tensions, per reuters.com []. The market’s nine straight days of gains—a rarity occurring only eight times in 25 years, per cnbc.com []—dispels April’s “fake news” of an economic collapse, per foxbusiness.com [], showcasing Trump’s economic rebound.
Conservatives are buzzing with excitement. @PatriotPulse on X wrote, “Trump’s tariffs brought Britain to the table—America First is working!” @America1stMAGA added, “The market’s soaring, and Trump’s securing deals—Biden’s chaos is over!” The U.K. agreement, Britain’s largest since Brexit, reduces tariffs on whisky and autos, projected to boost their $2.6 trillion economy by $34 billion by 2040, per reuters.com []. Trump’s administration has already slashed $2 trillion in federal spending, per whitehouse.gov [], and deported 88,763 illegal immigrants, per DHS [], signaling a return to American strength.
The leaked details, with Trump at the Resolute Desk, have conservatives optimistic. @JusticeForAll22 noted, “Trump’s trade wins are just beginning—Britain’s the start of a global comeback!” As the world watches, Trump’s strategy—tariffs as leverage—proves his mastery of economic warfare, ensuring America’s dominance in a new era of global trade.
