“The markets will flourish. Stock He goes into the flourishing, the earth will flourish, and the rest of the world wants to see if there is any way they can make an agreement, “Trump said on Thursday, leaving the White House.
“This is one of the most important days, in my opinion, in American history. It is our declaration of economic independence. For years, diligent American citizens have been forced to sit on the side while other nations have enriched and powerful, much at our expense,” Trump said. “But now it’s our turn to progress, and thus use trillion and trillion to reduce taxes and repay our national debt, and all this will happen very quickly.”
