Start a Newsletter That Covers Everything About the U.S. President
A daily or weekly digest of the president’s public statements, actions, movements, and appearances—without the noise or bias.
🎙️ Every day, the U.S. President speaks, travels, hosts meetings, signs orders—and most people only see the most viral headlines.
But what if you had a clear, unbiased record of everything the President said, did, where he went, and who he met—all in one place?
This edition of Easy Startup Ideas shows you how to build a focused, fact-based newsletter that tracks the full scope of presidential activity without the noise: speeches, statements, appearances, actions, and reactions—delivered straight to readers who want clarity over chaos.

Today’s Idea
A daily (or weekly) objective newsletter delivering only direct quotes, actions, public statements, and notable “gossip” about the current U.S. president—no broader politics, no opinion.
Available Domain: RawPOTUS.com

Ideal Customer
Political insiders & journalists who need timely, clean clips and context without noise.
Civic-minded subscribers seeking fact-based updates without slant.
Educators, students, researchers tracking presidential communication.
Corporate/government comms teams monitoring mentions and framing.
Everyday people that would like to follow what the president is saying or doing for whatever reason.

Why It Will Succeed
Underserved niche. Outlets like Politico or AP report on many angles—but rarely drill down to a curated, pure digest of only the president’s words and moves.
Fact-based clarity. With polarization high, your appeal is in absolute objectivity—shared value across the spectrum.
Evergreen relevance. Regardless of who’s in office or what's happening, content is plentiful.
Data foundation. You can build on existing resources—Factba.se already archives presidential statements and even offers analytics tools.
