Summary

On October 10, 2024, Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump spoke to the Detroit Economic Club, where over 1,000 members and their guests came to see him at the MotorCity Casino Hotel in Detroit.

Trump said under his administration, “Thousands of factories will open up all across our land. Inflation will come down fast. American cars and products will be exported and admired all throughout the world again,” and that by the end of his term “the entire world will be talking about the Michigan miracle and the stunning Rebirth of Detroit that's going to happen correctly with your vote”
