President Donald Trump touted what he described as sweeping economic gains, highlighting job creation, reduced dependency on government assistance, and surging private-sector investment.
Speaking at a rally in Rockland County, New York, alongside Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., GOP gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman, and New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, the president framed the numbers as proof that pro-growth, conservative policies are working, according to Just The News. He told supporters, Ive created 300,000 jobs in the last two months, casting the recent figures as a direct result of his administrations agenda of deregulation, tax relief, and support for American industry.
Trump argued that the broader labor market reflects a historic expansion of opportunity for American workers, particularly as welfare rolls shrink and private employment rises. Remember this right now, more people are working in the United States than at any time ever before, by far, by a big number. And in 16 months, weve lifted nearly 5 million Americans off of food stamps, he said, underscoring a central conservative goal of moving people from government dependence to self-sufficiency.
He further pointed to manufacturing and housing as evidence that business confidence remains strong under his leadership, with companies willing to invest and expand. Under our leadership, factory construction is up, new residential construction is way up, and consumer spending is way up, the president said.
Trump emphasized that capital investment is not a temporary blip but part of a broader trend of renewed faith in the American economy, driven by policies favoring free enterprise and domestic production. American companies are ordering core capital goods to expand their operations at the highest rate in the history of our country, he added, presenting the data as validation that a smaller, less intrusive federal government can unleash record-setting growth.
