Trump Detroit Economic Club 2026 Speech and the DOJ Integrity Crisis

While he claimed the economy is in excellent shape, many voters remain skeptical as they face rising costs in their daily lives. The address marks the beginning of a strategic push to define the economic narrative ahead of this year's midterm elections.
