POTUS claimed the man was asked by the interviewer what he thought of “what Trump is doing from the automobile standpoint.”
According to Trump, the man responded, “I never thought I’d see the day when this would happen, where somebody had the courage to go and do what has to be done. This is transforming our nation. Our entire nation is going to be transformed not only with the cars, but on every single other item that’s built. We’re going to become an industrial powerhouse.”
However, some people mistakenly believed Trump claimed he “saw Lee Iacocca on TV today praising him,” leading to criticism.
“Donald Trump just said on live TV that he saw Lee Iacocca on TV praising him this morning. That’s amazing, considering Iacocca died over five years ago. Someone please put the genius back in the stable. Better yet, put him out to pasture,” one person wrote on X.
Another added, “Uhhhhh. Trump knows Lee Iacocca has been dead for 6 years, right? He just claimed he was talking about how great his tariffs are on TV….”
A third person said, “Wait…did Trump say Lee Iacocca is alive…and said he supports the tariffs?!? WTAF is going on with dementia Don?”
Another person wrote, “He said [on live television] that Lee Iacocca was interviewed today and he said the tariffs the were great…Lee Iacocca died in 2019. We’re so cooked, bro.”
