Trump: ‘We Smashed All Expectations’ with Q2 GDP

TRANSCRIPT:

TRUMP: “I’d like to begin by saying a few words about the unbelievable kind of numbers that we’ve been putting up. And as I said, we — the number of 3 percent, the pace in the second quarter, we smashed all expectations. They thought it would be maybe a little bit less than 2. And it was 3, a little bit more than 3. Consumer spending is up, business investment is way up. Domestic manufacturing is way up. Real disposable family income is up and personal savings are up. Other than that, we’re not doing so great. (laughter) We have the hottest country, and I’ll tell you, it’s — it’s a great — we’re having a lot of fun with it.”
