Donald J. Trump, former President of the United States, shared his views on various issues through a series of posts on Truth Social on May 8, 2025. His comments touched upon domestic policy and international relations.

In one post, Trump made an announcement about his communication with Howard Lutnick, the Secretary of Commerce. He stated, "I have spoken with my wonderful Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick, and we agree that the Biden/Harris so-called 'Digital Equity Act' is totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL. No more woke handouts based on race! The Digital Equity Program is a RACIST and ILLEGAL $2.5 BILLION DOLLAR."

In another post from the same day at 21:10 UTC, Trump addressed ongoing international negotiations by stating, "Talks with Russia/Ukraine continue. The U.S. calls for, ideally, a 30-day unconditional ceasefire. Hopefully, an acceptable ceasefire will be observed, and both Countries will be held accountable for respecting the sanctity of these direct negotiations."
