Trump takes a swipe at ‘fortune tellers’ at World Economic Forum

Supplied video obtained january 22, 2020 of US President Donald Trump addressing the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. His speech covered how the United States was an economic powerhouse, and how important it is to protect the environment. Optimism is important and fear and doubt is 'not a good thought process'. Trump takes a swipe a the "prophets of doom and their predications". "They are the heirs of yesterday's foolish fortune tellers..they predicated an overpopulation crisis in the 1960's, mass starvation in the '70's, and the end of oil in the 1990's. These alarmists always demand the same thing, absolute power," Mr Trump says. (AAP Video/Supplied/White House, World Economic Forum) NO ARCHIVING, EDITORIAL USE ONLY
