Trump tours Elvis Presley’s Graceland, says Elvis 'would be very happy' with lower crime in Memphis

US President Donald Trump toured Graceland on Monday (March 23), praising Elvis Presley as “the most famous person on the planet” and saying the late music icon “would be very happy” with falling crime rates in Memphis. Walking through the historic home, Trump said crime in the city had dropped sharply in recent months and linked the improvements to his administration’s policies. The president, who said he had never previously visited Graceland, described himself as a longtime fan of Presley’s music, calling his voice “incredible” and his life “complicated, but terrific.” He also reflected on the singer’s enduring legacy, saying Presley was “beyond music” and a central part of American history.
