Wheels were up at JBA at 10:53 a.m. and down at CLT at 11:49 a.m.

From the gaggle:

POTUS started talking about new GDP numbers.

“GDP came out at a much higher number than any projections.”

“Almost double some projections. So we're doing great. The country is doing unbelievably well.”

On Alaska:

“The Alaska situation is terrible. What Peltola has done, and what , and the Democrat Party have done was a scheme. It's election fraud, total election fraud at the highest level, criminal level. Nobody's ever seen anything like this.”

On Murkowski Democratic endorsement:

“Well, that's her problem. But she, I notice that she also agrees that what they did here was a very bad thing.”

“She endorsed somebody that I think she shouldn’t have endorsed, but that's her.”

On California election case:

“California is very corrupt. The elections are extremely corrupt.”

“The judge should not have done that, but we’ll appeal that, of course.”

On seating Mary Peltola:

“Well, you're going to have to see what happens. It's hard to believe that she’d even be allowed to run. Frankly, I don't know how you can allow somebody like that to run. It's so unfair.”

On what is an honest election:

“If they don't correct this, it would be certainly a dishonest election.”

On Lula being the president of Brazil:

“I'll talk to him. I think the election was a disgrace in Brazil.”

On Arab voters:

“I do very well with the Arab vote. If you, in fact, if you look at, I won Michigan by a lot, and I won the Arab vote.”

On Pete Hegseth:

“I think it's terrible. All they do is they talk about impeaching everybody.”

“He's doing a great job. He's a great warrior.”

On the Pentagon leak:

“She's got problems.”

“We're very much looking for leakers, and she's gonna have big problems.”

On young voters:

“I think I'm performing well.”

On SC:

“In honor of Lindsay Graham. I'd like to see his sister win. She's very talented, very smart. She loved her brother. Her brother was a great guy. He loved South Carolina. He was a great politician.”
