These impromptu "news conferences" are usually Trump making a celebratory statement and not taking questions. We will see! 
Trump says he's "thrilled." He promises: "As the trade deals come in one by one, we're going to go a lot higher than these numbers."
Trump says one of the "biggest wins" in this report is that the trade deficit is down.
Trump predicts full-year growth of "over 3%, and it could be substantially over 3%."
Trump: "We've accomplished an economic turnaround of historic proportions." (Worth noting that jobs have been gained every month since late 2010.)
"We are in the midst of the longest job-growth streak in history," Trump says after disparaging the Obama-era economy. Six years and three months of the job-growth streak came under Obama.
Trump boasts of the record lows in African-American and Hispanic unemployment, incorrectly claims women's unemployment is the lowest in 65 years. (It's one year, or 18 years if you're only counting the pre-Trump era.)
Trump accurately boasts of $300 billion in profits being repatriated this year, then inaccurately adds, "We think it's going to be, in the end, when completed, over $4 trillion." Four experts tell me the "$4 trillion" number is a lie, no estimate is higher than $3.1 trillion.
Trump on other countries: "They stole our jobs and they plundered our wealth. But that ended."
Trump with a vivid lie about U.S. Steel workers yesterday: "Half of them had tears coming down their face." He adds that these people might never have cried before, but they cried yesterday.
Trump boasts of the increase in manufacturing employment, which he correctly notes lots of people didn't think would happen.
Trump falsely says "Obamacare is now on its last legs." (No.) Trump falsely says association health plans "just opened." (Not available until September 1.)
Trump says he wants to make sure to thank Kim Jong Un, "in front of the media," for keeping his promise on returning U.S. remains.
Trump tells the modified version of his tale about people approaching him on the campaign trail to ask him to get their relatives' remains back; this time, he doesn't say it was the troops' "parents." He says: "Oftentimes they were older. In some cases they were younger."
Trump says he might be even "more honoured" that the trade deficit has shrunk than that there is 4.1% growth. (Both numbers have been affected by the pre-tariff export surge.)
Surprise! Trump has left without taking any questions at his "news conference."
Here's the video of Trump's lie this morning about crying steelworkers.
