Updated:6 years, 9 months ago

Washington DC (US), Feb 06 (ANI): US President Donald Trump in his State of Union address counted the economic reforms he has done in the last two years, which made possible the addition of 5.3 million new jobs which include 600,000 new manufacturing jobs, and has made the country’s economy “hottest” in the world. President Trump said two years ago, this feat seemed “impossible” to everyone but it became a reality. Trump added that nearly five million people have been lifted off food stamps, and that the US economy is currently growing twice the rate when he acquired it in 2016. The State of the Union address got rescheduled to Feb 5 from Jan 29 due to the government shutdown that lifted on Jan 25.
