Trump brags about US gains under his watch, gets a laugh
US president Donald Trump evoked laughter at the UN general assembly as he boasted about his administration's accomplishments in his speech.
“Today, I stand before the United Nations general assembly to share the extraordinary progress we have made. In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. So true,” Trump said at the top of his speech.
His remarks elicited laughter from the world leaders gathered in the UN general assembly hall for the general debate.
“Didn't expect that reaction but that's okay,” Trump responded, as the delegates in the UNGA hall laughed and clapped.
Trump said America's economy is booming like never before and since his election, the US has added USD 10 trillion in wealth.
