President Donald Trump used a lengthy Truth Social post on Friday to claim credit for a new commercial fishing proclamation – while issuing a plea to Maine and New England voters to remember him as the November midterms approach.
“Another BIG WIN for Maine, and all of New England!” Trump wrote. “Hard to believe you vote for Democrats who did this to you, but not for ‘TRUMP,’ who gets you out of this Environmental and Economic Malaise.”
He urged residents to “VOTE REPUBLICAN FROM NOW ON” and then went on to bash “the Radical Left” for what he called “Burdensome and Unnecessary Restrictions on EVERYTHING, including our Great American Fishermen.”
“In my First Term, I reversed the prohibitions placed on Commercial Fishing, but Joe Biden, or whoever was using the AUTOPEN, foolishly reinstated them. Since Day One, I have taken historic action to END these disastrous policies,” Trump claimed in his Friday post, adding that the proclamation he signed today “will revitalize our Fishing Industry, and STRENGTHEN our Booming Economy.”
He then congratulated “all of our Great Fishermen,” before making a direct plea to voters.
“Please remember I did this for you, against strong Democrat opposition, and VOTE REPUBLICAN IN THE MIDTERMS!” Maine voted Democratic in the last nine elections, according to 270towin.com, including in 2024 when Kamala Harris led Trump by 7%.

When that happens, speculative corners, memecoins in particular, are most vulnerable.”Read more
