  • Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2019 Remarks Prior to a Meeting
    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2019 Remarks Prior to a Meeting with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore and an Exchange With Reporters in New York City September 23, 2019 President Trump. Well, thank you very much. As we just said, we signed a very important agreement having to do with defense and mutual defense and, I guess you could say, mutual offense also. But we—we're now going to talk about trade. We do tremendous amounts of trade with Singapore. And the Prime Minister—highly respected. One of the truly most respected men anywhere in the world. And he's been my friend for a long time. And we're doing very well. But we do tremendous trade with Singapore, and we appreciate it very much, Mr. Prime Minister. Prime Minister Lee. Well, thank you, Mr. President. As you said, we just signed an agreement to extend our memorandum of understanding on defense cooperation. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. It's the second time we are extending this. It reflects a very good defense relationship we have between the two countries, but also reflects our broader cooperation and friendship. And, in economics, we have an FTA between the U.S. and Singapore. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. The volume of trade is substantial and the volume of investments too. In Singapore, you are one—you are our most important foreign investor. And, in America, as small as we are, we have $55 billion worth of investments—— President Trump. That's not too bad. Prime Minister Lee.

  • Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 the President's News
    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 The President's News Conference September 4, 2020 The President. Thank you, everybody, very much. Thank you. So, as we begin Labor Day weekend, America's unprecedented economic recovery continues. You see what's going on. It's been pretty amazing. The United States economy added today—announced this morning—1.4 million jobs last month, bringing the total to over 10.6 million jobs created in just 4 months. That's a record, by far. In August, we added 249,000 retail jobs; 174,000 leisure and hospitality jobs; and 29,000 new manufacturing jobs. The unemployment rate plummeted to 8.4 percent, the second largest single-month drop ever recorded, surpassed only by our big decline in June. Last month, we saw large declines in the unemployment rate for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans—very big declines. We're witnessing the fastest labor market recovery from any economic crisis in history, by far. By contrast, the last administration had the slowest, weakest, and worst recovery in American history. That was well documented, as you know. This year, the United States has seen the smallest economic contraction of any major western Nation, and we are recovering at a much faster rate than any other nation. Business confidence is higher today in America than in any other G–7 or EU country—that covers a lot of territory. So we have the business confidence is higher than many—than any of those countries. In July, retail sales not only recovered, but reached a new alltime high.

  • 1 December 18, 2019 President Donald J. Trump the White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear President
    December 18, 2019 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear President Trump: We are writing to express our concerns about a possible change in federal policies that could significantly threaten a vibrant American scientific enterprise, which has long been a global leader in driving discovery and innovation. The changes reportedly being discussed would effectively require publishers to immediately make federally funded scientific discoveries published in their journals freely available to the global market. Currently, free distribution of research findings is subject to a 12-month embargo, enabling American publishers to recover the investment made in curating and assuring the quality of scientific research content. As scientific society leaders overseeing publishing operations, we support open access and have a strong history of advancing open access through a broad array of operational models. This current system allows scientific societies to meet the needs of researchers and U.S. taxpayers, while also funding programs to support the scientific enterprise to keep America a global leader in research and innovation. The current 12-month embargo period provides science and engineering society publishers the financial stability that enables us to support peer review that ensures the quality and integrity of the research enterprise. Further, it enables us to drive advancement in our respective scientific fields through our meetings, programs and outreach. One particular area of importance is strengthening U.S. STEM infrastructure through education, career, and outreach programs which together build a diverse STEM workforce that underlies U.S. discovery and innovation. U.S. scientific societies are committed to working on a broad array of issues, including research integrity, data sharing, accessibility, and transparency.
