One surprise for the room on Tuesday: Mr. Trump said that wages for the average American worker during his presidency had risen $10,000. That was $3,000 more than the $7,000 that Trump claimed workers had gained just three weeks ago.

Mr. Trump also said that 10,000 factories have opened in the U.S. under his watch, adding that companies are bringing jobs back from overseas. "Many more want to, and are planning on coming back to the U.S.," he said. "I know this is true because I have said it before and no one in the media has called me out on it, and you know they love to say that Trump is lying."
