Trump Claims Men Tell Him He Saved Their Marriages: ‘Sir, My Wife Finally Loves Me’

President Donald Trump claimed at a rally on Monday night that men all over the country have thanked him for saving their marriages.

Trump spoke in Corinth, Mississippi, where he campaigned for Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, who is expected to defeat Democrat Scott Colom. The race, however, is closer than expected in the deep-red state, thanks in part to Trump’s general unpopularity.

The president has been campaigning in traditionally safe red states to try to shore up support for struggling Republican incumbents. During Monday’s rally, Trump touted the gains the stock market has made since he assumed office for the second time.

“And since the election, the stock market has set 88 all-time record highs,” he said. “Think of that. That’s much less than two years. You know, we’re still, believe it or not, we’re still much less than two years. Nobody thought we could do this quickly. I didn’t even think we could do this quickly.”

The president then urged the Mississippi crowd to examine the performance of their 401 (k) accounts, which have done so well that men are thanking him for breathing life into their moribund marriages:

But if you have any doubt, before you go and vote, pick up your 401(k)s and check it out. You see that you have made more money than you’ve ever made in your entire life, 60%, 65%, 58%.

People are telling me right now, “My wife is in love with me. She thinks I’m like a great investor. Sir, my wife finally loves me. She thinks I’m a genius. ‘Darling, you’re really good at this, aren’t you?’ Yes, darling. Here, we’re up 64%.” Right? They didn’t do a damn thing. I always talk about the policeman from New York, he said, “Oh, my wife. She always hated my financial ability and now she thinks I’m a genius.”

According to a SmartAsset survey, Mississippi residents have saved the least for retirement, with the average household having just $35,000 in retirement savings. Only 36% have a 401 (k).

Elsewhere during the rally, a heckler screamed at Trump about the White House ballroom that is currently under construction.

“Shove that ballroom up your a**!” the man yelled.
