Everything good that Donald Trump has, he inherited. He is not a self-made man, as he likes to profess. He was given $60.7 million by his father to get him started in life. You'd have to be pretty foolish to squander that. #velshi

Wealth is not the only thing Donald Trump inherited. He inherited a growing economy with low unemployment, strong job growth & the fewest number of uninsured Americans in a decade. You'd be pretty foolish to squander that, too. Yet squander it Trump did. #velshi

When Trump ran for office, he promised tax cuts, a doubling of economic growth to levels not seen since the 1980s & 25 million new manufacturing jobs. In Donald Trump's lie lay the promise that even the poorest would thrive under his administration. #velshi

Even before the pandemic, made far worse by Trump’s apparently deliberate mismanagement, he had failed to deliver. Just like all he had to do with coronavirus was follow public health recommendations, all he had to do with the economy was to NOT mess it up. #velshi

For the first 3 years of his presidency, Trump got away with kicking the can down the road on most of his economic policies. "Tax cuts!" he said, claiming the avg. U.S. family would see $4,000 more a year as a result of a tax cut for the wealthy. That didn't happen. #velshi

4% economic growth, Trump told us, maybe even 5-6%. Of course, that didn't happen & then he led America into a trade war on all fronts, putting farmers on a roller coaster ride that hasn't stopped & creating a weaker global economy that COVID turned into a recession. #velshi

There are 107 days until the election. Time is running out for Trump & his poll numbers are collapsing. 50% of all registered voters "strongly" disapprove of the President & only 44% approve of his handling of the economy. #velshi

Of the 60 promises he made in his “Contract with the American Voter,” 13 were economic promises. 9 of those promises were broken BEFORE the pandemic. #velshi

Trump had 4 years to make good on his promises. He didn't do it when he had the chance & he can't do it now. #velshi
