“We did a good job for this party,” Trump said. “We had the largest economy in history and then rebuilt it a second time, and the foundations were so strong that no other country can compete with us.”
“I think based on performance at work, I’m not sure anyone should be able to earn besides us,” the former president added.
The news comes as the Republican Party has broken through, with some lawmakers and leaders wanting to continue on a pro-Trump platform, and others wanting to break away from the former president’s grip.
