President Trump Delivers Remarks on the Economy, Dec. 19, 2025

Published | Video Starts at 04:51

Since my inauguration, we've created more than 53,000 North Carolina jobs, including 8,000 North Carolina construction jobs. More than 150,000 North Carolina residents have been lifted off of food stamps. They're very happy about that. And After your horrible hurricane, which produced more water damage than any hurricane in history, the Democrats let you down. They really did. Remember, they wouldn't do anything. Remember, they wouldn't go to your community. They wouldn't do anything. You had to wait till January 20th when I took office, that we really knocked the hell out of it. (04:51–05:00)
