Trump touts ‘economic progress’ to college grads
President Trump on Friday said his administration provides a hopeful economy for new college graduates.
“Our economic progress is especially good news for the millions of young Americans who, at this time of the year, are putting on a cap and gown and receiving a diploma certificate,” Trump said in his weekly White House address.

“This weekend, I am delighted to be participating first-hand in the excitement by joining the students and faculty at Liberty University to celebrate the success of their graduates,” he added.
Trump will deliver the commencement speech to Liberty University, America’s largest Christian college, on Saturday morning.
Trump also previewed his plans to give a speech at the United States Coast Guard Academy in Connecticut.
“To young Americans at both schools, I will be bringing a message of hope and optimism about our nation’s bright future. That is a message that I want to extend to all young Americans today, especially those who are graduating this year and entering the labor force,” he said.
Trump further reiterated his promises to stabilize the U.S. job market and end “the sellout of American workers.”
“I want you to know that my adminstration is working every single day to create new opportunities and to reverse years of stagnant growth, falling wages, and disappearing jobs. We are ending the sellout of American workers,” the president said.
“I want every young citizen regardless of education or geography to be able to live out their American dreams. So, to all of America’s graduates, congratulations. And to all of America’s youth, we are here to help create the jobs and future you deserve.”
