“We have now close to $10 trillion” in investments. “We’re talking about essentially two months.”
What PolitiFact found
The White House has publicly disclosed far less than $10 trillion in investments; it cites $2.1 trillion in corporate investments, or $5.1 trillion when including investments countries have promised. There is no guarantee that the full amounts promised will come to fruition, and some of this investment would have occurred regardless of who was president.
