President Donald Trump on Thursday made a big announcement about an upcoming global event and who he picked to help lead it.
He posted the following on his Truth Social platform: "Today, I am announcing the United States’ intention to bid for the World Expo 2035. The Great State of Florida has expressed strong interest in hosting the Expo in Miami, which I fully support. Miami Expo 2035 can be the next big milestone in our new Golden Age of America."
Trump shared the news just a day after meeting with world leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and having major pushback to his demands to seize Greenland and invoke tariffs on European allies in retaliation to their objections — then announcing he had sought a new deal over the Arctic nation.
He also revealed who in his circle will help lead the effort.
"I am appointing Miami native Secretary of State Marco Rubio to Chair the efforts of coordinating and advancing this exciting opportunity to convene the World. We will create thousands of jobs, and add Billions of Dollars in GROWTH, to our Economy. In my First Term as President, I fought hard to bring the 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2028 LA Summer Olympics to the U.S.A. I now have the Honor of hosting as the 47th President, plus America250, G20 Doral, and the G7. I look forward to winning and participating in the Miami Expo 2035!"
