CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/ECONOMY/HISPANICS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Before the plague from China came in — you know what that is; that’s the China virus — before it came in and hit us, we achieved the lowest Hispanic American unemployment rate and the lowest poverty rate ever recorded — history of our country — ever recorded. And we’re getting back to it very quickly.

We achieved the highest-ever incomes for Hispanic Americans and many other American groups and communities. We built the greatest economy in history, not only for our country, but for the world. We were number one, by far.”

-Donald Trump, “Remarks by President Trump at Signing of an Executive Order on the White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative,” whitehouse.gov, July 9, 2020
