President Trump sent a Thanksgiving Day message to the nation Thursday: It’s time to be very grateful. To him.
In an early-morning tweet, Trump wrote: « your Country is starting to do really well. Jobs coming back, highest Stock Market EVER, Military getting really strong, we will build the WALL, V. A. taking care of our Vets, great Supreme Court Justice, RECORD CUT IN REGS, lowest unemployment in 17 years….!”
Trump is celebrating Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago, his private club in Palm Beach, Fla.
In a video conference with members of the military later in the morning, Trump praised and thanked troops for their service. He also touted military advances under his leadership and told the troops, without elaborating, that they are now allowed to do things that previous administration did not allow them to do.
« You’re very, very special people, » he said. « You’re fighting for something real, you’re fighting for something good, » he added.
Trump also told the troops that he’s working on « big, fat, beautiful tax cuts. »
Earlier this week, Trump tweeted he was not getting enough credit for securing the release of three college basketball players arrested in China.
« It wasn’t the White House, it wasn’t the State Department, it wasn’t father LaVar’s so-called people on the ground in China that got his son out of a long term prison sentence – IT WAS ME, » he tweeted.
Following the conclusion of Trump’s recent 12-day trip to Asia, he declared last week: « My fellow citizens, America is back, and the future has never looked brighter. »
Among the accomplishments Trump cited were his efforts to restore « free and reciprocal trade » and rallying world leaders against the dual threats of a nuclear-armed North Korea and radical Islamic terrorism. « The days of the United States being taken advantage of are over, » he vowed, without announcing any new policy changes.
Before leaving Washington for Mar-a-Lago, Trump delivered the traditional message of unity, thanks and blessings ahead of the holiday.
« This Thursday as we give thanks for our cherished love ones, let us also renew our bonds of trust, loyalty and affection between our fellow citizens as members of a proud national family of Americans, » he said in scripted remarks.
