Although this congressional speech by $BTC did not mention the cryptocurrency industry, the market was still shaken, as every time he speaks, both bulls and bears hold their breath.
Last night's market saw significant fluctuations, mainly because the market brought forward interest rate cut expectations to May; in the middle of the night, excitement caused the crypto world to bounce up and down.
Summary of Trump's speech:
1. Boastful opening: America is back Trump started by saying "America is back," claiming that he accomplished in six weeks what others couldn't achieve in four or eight years. He referred to this period as "the greatest and most successful era in American history," filled with confidence.
2. Economic card - saving the grocery basket: He prioritized rescuing the economy, stating that he wants to lighten the burden on working families. He pointed out the "economic disaster" and "inflation nightmare" left by the previous administration, such as soaring energy and grocery prices, making it unaffordable for many. He promised to immediately address these "grocery basket issues."
3. Tough stance on immigration: He demanded that illegal immigrants who steal or commit violent crimes should be arrested. He cited the case of a girl in Georgia who was killed by an illegal immigrant (her family was invited to the event), emphasizing that under his administration, border arrests reached a 25-year low and vowed to continue strict enforcement.
4. Addressing opponents: Let's work together At the end of his speech, he even called out the Democrats, saying, "Let's celebrate America's victory together tonight," hoping both sides would cooperate to "make America great again."
This speech was very "Trump-like"—first boasting about achievements, then shifting blame to predecessors, and finally focusing on economic and immigration issues to attract supporters.
