This wasnt true then. But its even less true now. Heres a brief tour of economic developments since Trumps June 2015 address:
Jobs
Since June 2015, the economy has created more than 3.2 million jobs more than the number of jobs in 38 separate states and roughly equal to the number of workers in states like Massachusetts or Washington. In the last 15 months, the labor force has added another Bay State.
When Barack Obama took office, the unemployment rate was passing 8 percent on its way to 10 percent. But U.S. unemployment has now been at 5 percent or below every month for a full year.
The economy created
11 million jobs under President Obama, which is (literally) quasi-infinitely more than the number of jobs created under President George W. Bush, since his jobs created total was about 400,000 below zero. The economy has now added jobs for 73 consecutive months, a record.

Wages
Median household incomes jumped by 5.2 percent in 2015, the year Trump made his comments. That was fastest rate on record, according to the U.S. Census.
