Stated on May 8, 2025 in an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press":

“We have now close to $10 trillion” in investments. “We’re talking about essentially two months.”

Trump said, "We have now close to $10 trillion, think of that, $10 trillion" in investments. "We’re talking about essentially two months."

The White House has pointed to investment announcements totaling $5.1 trillion, including $2.1 trillion from companies and the rest from countries.

That’s at least $4.9 trillion short of Trump’s figure, and these announcements represent future spending, some of which is planned over four years, five years or a decade.

Experts said many of the dollar amounts are aspirational and that the investments announced might never be fully reached. They also said some of this investment would have occurred regardless of who was president.




False.
