TRUMP: I am here today to lay out my plan to rescue our country

PRESIDENT TRUMP: "I am here today to lay out my plan to rescue our country from this nightmare, and to bring back to its citizens the American Dream, bigger, better, and stronger than ever before."

"8 years ago, I came before you as a candidate for president, and shared my vision to end the stagnation and return to rapid growth. As president, that is exactly what I did."

"Before the pandemic, real median household income rose by $7,684 dollars—and even after the pandemic, annual incomes were up $6,400 dollars. The average American household saw a $197,000 dollar increase in real net worth in 48 months."

"For the bottom 50% of households, average wealth more than doubled, increasing by 121%. After 12 years of decline, we added nearly 7 million new homeowners. And in 3 years, we created 7 million new jobs, 260% more than projected when I took office."
