Trump Delivers Blistering Rebuke at UN The president boasted of American strength and the American economy: “America is blessed with the strongest economy, the strongest borders, the strongest military, the strongest friendships, and the strongest spirit of any nation on the face of the earth. This is indeed the golden age of America. We are rapidly reversing the economic calamity we inherited from the previous administration, including ruinous price increases and record setting inflation, inflation like we’ve never had before….” He touted American strength on borders and illegal immigration while damning others: “We have successfully repelled a colossal invasion, and for the last four months, and that’s four months in a row, the number of illegal aliens admitted and entering our country has been zero…. With immigration, it’s destroying your country and you have to do something about it.” He boasted of ending seven wars: “I’m very honored to have done it. It’s too bad that I had to do these things instead of the United Nations doing them, and sadly, in all cases, the United Nations did not even try to help in any of ’em. I ended seven wars, dealt with the leaders of each and every one of these countries and never even received a phone call from the United Nations offering to help in finalizing the deal. All I got from the United Nations was an escalator that on the way up stopped right in the middle. If the first lady wasn’t in great shape, she would’ve fallen, but she’s in great shape. We’re both in good shape. We both stood and then a teleprompter that didn’t work. These are the two things I got from the United Nations, A bad escalator and a bad teleprompter. Thank you very much…. And he returned to the immigration issue again: “Not only is the UN not solving the problems … it’s actually creating new problems for us to solve. The best example is the number one political issue of our time, the crisis of uncontrolled migration. It’s uncontrolled. Your countries are being ruined” (White House).
