WH Advisor Admits Trump Lied About GDP [VIDEO]

But what is true is that it’s the highest in 10 years, and at some point somebody probably conveyed it to him adding a zero to that, and they shouldn’t have done that.” – White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett, admitting that Trump wildly exaggerated the latest GDP figures.
