USA is "the envy of the world" and other keys of Trump's speech to Congress

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, said Tuesday during his second speech on the state of the Union that the US economy is "the envy of the world" and said the only thing that could stop "our solid economy are political or ridiculous investigations ". "After 24 months of rapidly advancing our economy is the envy of the world, our military is by far the most powerful in the world," Trump said during his speech.

Before a majority Democratic Congress, the Republican President stressed that under his government, unemployment has reached the lowest rates recorded by the country in half a century and that the US economy is growing "twice as fast if we compare it to my arrival". In addition, Trump pointed out that companies were returning to the United States. "Thanks to the reduction of taxes and regulations". He said the country is "the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas".

In his speech, he also called a new era of union and cooperation to break the "decades" of political stalemate. "We must reject the policy of revenge, resistance and retaliation, and embrace the unlimited potential of cooperation, commitment and the common good, "he said. Together we can break decades of political stalemate. We can overcome old divisions, heal old wounds, form new coalitions, find new solutions and offer an extraordinary promise for the future of the United States. The decision belongs to us, "he said.

The president also criticized the investigation (usually referred to as "witch hunt") conducted by the special prosecutor Robert Mueller at the Russian intervention in the 2016 election campaign for Trump.
