U.S. President Donald Trump took a victory lap in friendly territory on Thursday, celebrating passage of his massive tax-cut and border security bill among supporters at the Iowa State Fairground, Reuters reported.

Trump flew to the state, which voted for him by large margins during the last three presidential elections, directly after the U.S. House of Representatives passed his “big, beautiful bill” and sent it to his desk to be enacted into law.

“Every major promise I made to the people of Iowa in 2024 became a promise kept,” Trump told the crowd of thousands at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines.

By visiting the state Trump was reinforcing his image as a president who delivers on his promises, especially to his rural and conservative base, according to Reuters.
