Trump Asks for Time to Boost Economy as US GDP Contracts

President Donald Trump has requested Wall Street provide him with time to revitalize the US economy, following a recent contraction in GDP. The Commerce Department reported Wednesday that the nation’s gross domestic product shrunk at an annual rate of 0.3%, reversing growth from the previous quarter’s impressive 2.4%. Trump blamed his predecessor, President Biden, for America’s economic slump and asserted citizens need to grant him time to implement policies for improvement.
