President Trump claimed Friday that his economic policies and booming stock market saved the “sex life” of an NYPD officer whose wife once treated him “like a dog,” during a rally in Texas.“This great, tough cop from New York – he takes good care of us – and he said, ‘Sir, that’s very good. My married life is much better,'” Trump told crowds in Texas.“My wife thought I was a financial loser. I couldn’t make any money because my 401(k) had been dying for years. And now she thinks I’m the smartest financial genius ever. He’s made my sex life good… He’s given me a huge boost in life,” Trump quoted the cop as telling him.
The president’s account repurposed the oft-repeated laugh line about rising stock values making spouses look like geniuses to their spouses.“So, this is a big, tough cop,” Trump continued. “He said, ‘My wife treated me like a dog, and now she’s admiring my financial genius, and I haven’t done anything. My 401(k) is through the roof.'”“So I said, ‘Thank you very much.’” But everyone is there, right? Everyone is awake.
Has anyone gone under with their 401(k)? Because if you do, you lose.”The president appeared in Corpus Christi, a major port and refinery hub, to argue that his policies had increased oil and gas production and reduced costs for American consumers.“No one has ever seen a one-year turnaround like what we’ve seen,” Trump said.“We were a laughing stock a year and a half ago, and now we’re hot. We’re hot – I was going to say like that person in the audience, but I won’t say that, because that could be the end of the career.”
