Trump: The Fake News Stopped Talking About Affordability Because “I’ve Won Affordability”
President Donald Trump traveled to Rome, Georgia, on Thursday, where he delivered a major economic address at Coosa Steel Corporation and highlighted what he called his administration’s economic successes.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: This country would have been dead. Adding nine trillion dollars in value to your savings. I added nine trillion and your retirement accounts and 401ks are at the highest level they’ve ever been. And then I have to listen to the fake news, talking about affordability, affordability. You notice, what word have you not heard over the last two weeks? Affordability. Because I’ve won. I’ve won affordability. I had to go out and talk about it. But we inherited a mess. We inherited the worst inflation in history. But I’d like to correct it because it’s actually the fake news corrected me. He exaggerated. He said it was the worst inflation in history and it’s only 48 years. So I apologize for that, Kelly. I apologize. So it’s the worst inflation in 48 years. Actually, I think they’re wrong. I think it is actually in history. We had the worst inflation in history under Sleepy Joe Biden. He was sleeping while you were working. Now, he was sleeping while you were trying to get a job. You weren’t working. And now we have the most people working in history.
