POTUS touted his decision to fund development of the Covid-19 vaccine — something he rarely mentions — as he was discussing his economic record across both of his nonconsecutive terms.

"We did Operation Warp Speed, and I'll tell you, we did a great job, but we got very little credit for it. We should have been given big credit, but we got credit for everything else. And we had the best economy, but this this economy is ready to blow everything away ever of any country. There's never been anything like what's happening in the United States of America right now," he said.
