Trump released a statement honoring Andrew Jackson on what would have been his 259th birthday. The message praises Jackson as a "champion for the common man" and a leader who fought against political corruption in Washington.
The statement highlights Jackson’s life story, including his service in the Revolutionary War at age 13 and his victory at the Battle of New Orleans. It describes him as a national hero who overcame personal tragedy and political setbacks to become the 7th president.
The message draws a direct line between Jackson’s policies and the current administration’s goals. It mentions Jackson’s use of tariffs to protect workers and his efforts to take power away from "corrupt elites" to return it to the American people.
This message is part of the "America 250" celebration, which marks 250 years of American independence. It reaffirms a commitment to "putting America first" by protecting industries from foreign competition and cutting down on government waste.
