"Our vets are happy, our people are happy, our military is happy. The job numbers are incredible. If we were not hit by pandemic we would have had numbers that nobody would have ever seen before. Even now, we built it twice. The stock market is substantially higher than the highest point before the pandemic," Trump tells the crowd.
He adds, "You're gonna see incredible number start coming in. Remember us when you see these things happening. I am looking at elements of our economy that is a rocket chip up. As bad as the pandemic was, we were hit so hard, places that thought they got away they didn't, they are suffering now. We got the vaccine developed in 9 months not 9 years or 5 years. It is a medical miracle. You should start to see really good numbers in the next few months."
Trump tells the crowd, "What we have done is amazing by any standard. We rebuild the US military, we created a new force called Space Force, we were not a regular administration. We took care of the vets, the vets gave an approval rating of 91%, highest than ever before. We picked up the bill, they can go out and see the doctor the time they liked."
Trump addresses the crowd, says, "Thank u so much, we love you, it's incredible 4 years, I want to thank my family, friends, everyone, your hard work. All of you did a fantastic job."
Donald Trump says it was a 'great honour' to serve as the US president in parting remarks to reporters.
He added he hoped it would not be a long goodbye.
