President Trump's Liberation Day Speech on Economic Independence and Reciprocal Tariffs

Published | Video Starts at 34:53

From the day of my election, the stock market went up in my first term, 88%, with Nasdaq going up 155% more than any president has ever had in any term in office by far. And I think we're going to blow that away. And maybe the numbers won't show, but I think they're going to show much better than even those numbers. (34:53–35:09)
