“The results of this trip show how Trump’s foreign policy delivers tangible advantages to American businesses and communities,” Pigott stated during an appearance on “National Report.” He emphasized that Trump’s approach prioritizes American interests, noting the president’s ability to secure deals that strengthen supply chains and advance national priorities.
