10 Predictions For Trump’s Second Presidency

What might happen if Trump returns to the White House? That’s our question today.

Based on what he did the first time around — and what Trump is promising now — we've got some ideas.

Exactly 10 of them.

First, imagine a warehouse in an undisclosed U.S. location. Inside this warehouse sit over one million military-grade drones.

This million-drone swarm could be deployed at a moment’s notice to neutralize any air threat from Russia, China, North Korea or any other enemy.

Put simply, defense is the new offense.

And by focusing on military strength through AI integration, Team Trump could spark a defense sector boom. With key beneficiaries including:

  • Lockheed Martin (LMT): AI-enhanced fighter jets and missile systems
  • Northrop Grumman (NOC): Autonomous systems and cybersecurity
  • Raytheon Technologies (RTX): AI-driven radar and missile defense
  • General Dynamics (GD): AI applications in land and sea
  • Palantir (PLTR): AI-powered data analytics for defense

Under Trump’s leadership, in fact, American technology plus AI could create massive upside for citizens and investors.

Now, keep reading for nine more things that’ll happen if Trump’s president again…

But Wait There’s More…

2. Tax Cuts: Fuel Economic Growth
Extending the 2017 Tax Cuts could boost economic growth. Those lower tax rates mean more money for businesses to spend or invest and more disposable income for American families.That’s a win-win.

3. Deregulation: Unleash Business Potential
Trump loves slashing regulations. This could mean companies spend less time dealing with red tape and more time growing, innovating and creating jobs.

4. Infrastructure Investment: Rebuild America's Future
Get ready for a safer, shinier America. We're talking roads, bridges, airports and better internet connectivity. This could create millions of jobs while making the U.S. more competitive globally.

5. Trade Deals: Strengthen American Industry
The goal is simple: More American goods and services sold overseas, more jobs here at home and better protection for our ideas and inventions.

6. Workforce Development: Bridge the Skills Gap
College isn't for everyone. Team Trump has pushed for more vocational training and apprenticeships. This could help fill critical job shortages in manufacturing, tech, and trades.

7. Energy Independence: Lower Prices and Market-Driven Solutions
Trump's all about American oil and gas. Which could mean lower electric bills and less pain at the pump. Trump might also ditch those EV tax credits. The idea? Let the market dictate which cars Americans drive.

8. Gold Rush: Safe Haven in a Weak-Dollar Era
Trump's policies could lead to a weaker dollar, and a weak dollar typically boosts gold prices. That’s fantastic news for precious metals, investors and mining companies.

9. Healthcare Reform: Patients in the Driver’s Seat
A Trump White House could further streamline FDA processes for better patient outcomes, lower costs and faster access to cutting-edge treatments.

10. Stock Market Surge: Investor Confidence
Trump's pro-business stance could invigorate the stock market and generate wealth for a strong American middle class. Plus, a stable stock market attracts more domestic and foreign investment.

In total? These 10 scenarios paint a picture of potential economic impacts from a second Trump term.

While presidential candidates make sweeping promises, it makes sense to weigh a candidate’s promises against recent history.
