Donald J. Trump, former President of the United States and a leading figure in American politics, made several posts on his Truth Social account on August 18, 2025. The messages addressed both domestic issues and international affairs.
In one post published at 09:08 AM EST, Trump commented on a significant gathering at the White House, stating: "A big day at the White House. We have never had so many European Leaders here at one time. A great honor for America!!! Lets see what the results will be??? President DJT" (August 18, 2025).
Shortly after, Trump raised concerns about crime statistics reported by Washington D.C., writing: "D.C. gave Fake Crime numbers in order to create a false illusion of safety. This is a very bad and dangerous thing to do, and they are under serious investigation for so doing! Until 4 days ago, Washington, D.C., was the most" (August 18, 2025).
In another post from that morning, Trump reiterated his well-known campaign slogan: "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" (August 18, 2025).
These statements come as Trump continues to play an active role in national political discussions and maintains a strong presence on social media platforms such as Truth Social.
