Donald Trump has often praised his White House economic record, despite analysis from leading experts saying his policies were disastrous and an "utter failure."

The former president has previously claimed that he launched the "fastest economic comeback in history" while increasing the national debt by $7.8 trillion during his term in office.

In one recent exchange, amid rising tensions with China, Trump said he was the first president to have brought in any money from Beijing for the U.S. Treasury.

At a campaign event held on April 27, 2023, in New Hampshire, Donald Trump claimed that no other presidents "had gotten even 10 cents" from China into the U.S. Treasury.
