As Donald Trump marks one year since winning the 2024 US Presidential Election, GB News takes a look at three defining moments that have set his leadership apart from Sir Keir Starmer's first year in power.

Breakthrough Gaza peace deal
President Trump successfully brokered a peace deal for war-torn Gaza last month, which saw Hamas and Israel agree to pause fighting and hand over hostages.
The historic deal was officially signed by the US President in Egypt on October 13.
Mr Trump said at the time: "This took 3,000 years, can you believe it? And it's going to hold up."
"This is an incredible day for the world."
He said the deal would avert a Third World War, which could have occurred in the Middle East, and said the "long nightmare" for both Israel and Palestinians was over.
After the peace deal was brokered, Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson claimed the Government had been involved "behind the scenes".
However, US ambassador Mike Huckabee rubbished the Labour minister's claims, branding her "delusional".
Meanwhile, Sir Keir has been accused of "rewarding Hamas" after he pledged to recognise Palestinian statehood.
Both the Israeli and US Governments condemned the decision, saying it is a diplomatic gift for the terror group.

Economy
According to economic data, gross domestic product (GDP) rose by 0.8 per cent in the US in the second fiscal quarter of 2025, compared to the previous quarter.
By comparison, GDP grew by 0.3 per cent in Britain.
In response to Chancellor Rachel Reeve's pre-Budget speech on the state of UK's economy yesterday, the pound plummeted to a nearly seven-month low.
Sterling slipped by as much as 0.4 per cent against the dollar $1.3086, which is the lowest the currency has reached since April 2025.

Immigration
President Trump has also clamped down on illegal immigration in the US, with illegal crossings along the US-to-Mexico border dropping to the lowest level since the start of the 1970s, according to data obtained by CBS.
Meanwhile, Sir Keir has been battling growing numbers of illegal Channel crossings since he came to power last July.
On a visit to Scotland this summer, Mr Trump issued a stark migration warning to the Prime Minister, saying a "horrible invasion" risks "killing Europe".
The US President claimed that a surge in arrivals was threatening the continent, imploring European leaders to stop the crisis.

Mr Trump said: "On immigration you better get your act together or you’re not going to have Europe anymore.
"You’ve got to stop this horrible invasion that is happening to Europe, many countries in Europe.
“Some leaders have not let it happen, and they’re not getting the proper credit.
"I could name them to you right now, but I’m not going to embarrass the other ones. But stop, this immigration is killing Europe."
