News, Politics

It was a speech that had the world watching.

U.S. President Donald Trump said “we’re winning so much” — noting his leadership has ignited an economic boom.

“Our country is winning again. In fact, we’re winning so much that we really don’t know what to do about it. People are asking me, ‘Please, please, please, Mister President, we’re winning too much. We can’t take it anymore,’” Trump said before introducing the U.S. gold-medal winning men’s hockey team.

The hockey players, wearing their Olympic gold medals, received a standing ovation.

Trump spoke for a record 108 minutes, breaking, by just less than 10 minutes, the previous time mark from his address last year.

President Trump spoke about his immigration crackdowns and the United States’ push for widespread tariffs that the Supreme Court recently struck down.
