Former President Donald Trump announced today that over $15 trillion will be invested in the American economy, claiming this figure represents a record high. He attributed this surge in investment to significant reductions in inflation and falling prices across various sectors, particularly energy.
In a statement, Trump declared, "Prices in the U.S. HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED, inflation is practically absent." He emphasized that gasoline prices are at multi-year lows, despite the tariffs imposed on foreign goods that he argues have strengthened the U.S. economy. "These tariffs bring in trillions of dollars from countries that have taken advantage of us for decades, making America STRONG and RESPECTED AGAIN!" he added.
Trump warned that if the "radical left court" were to overturn these tariffs, the anticipated investments could be jeopardized. "Almost all of these investments, and much more, will be immediately canceled! In many ways, we will become a third-world country, with no hope for GREATNESS again," he asserted, stressing the urgency of maintaining current economic policies.
This announcement comes amid ongoing debates over economic strategies and their impact on American businesses and consumers. As previously reported, similar situations have arisen in the past when economic policies faced legal challenges, raising questions about their long-term viability. With the stakes high, Trump"s claims could significantly influence investor confidence and economic stability in the coming months.
