Donald Trump took a victory lap at the Iowa state fairgrounds for the so-called “big, beautiful bill” that has consolidated his political power just as Americans prepare to celebrate independence day.

Just over five months since he was sworn in for a second term, Trump is riding high on a string of political victories, including this week’s passage of his flagship tax and spending bill. The president will hold a signing ceremony at the White House on Friday, flanked by his closest congressional allies and in the shadow of a military plane flyover.

“There could be no better birthday present for America than the phenomenal victory we achieved just hours ago when Congress passed the one big, beautiful bill to make America great again,” Trump said to cheers from the crowd on Thursday night.
