"I've always said, if you run for president, you shouldn't be allowed to use teleprompters,” Trump said... "Because you don't even know if the guy is smart."

All righty then.(CNN) - President Donald Trump is a "changed person" amid recent reports of an alleged affair with porn star Stormy Daniels, said the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.
"These alleged affairs, they're alleged with Trump, didn't happen while he was in office," Franklin Graham told CNN's Don Lemon on "CNN Tonight" on Tuesday.
Graham's remarks come after a Wall Street Journal report that Trump's lawyer, Michael Cohen, formed a private LLC to pay a former porn star in exchange for not speaking publicly about an alleged sexual encounter with the then-candidate. CNN has not independently confirmed The Wall Street Journal's reporting, and in response to the initial Wall Street Journal report about the affair, Cohen said the rumors had circulated since 2011 and that Trump "once again vehemently denies any such occurrence."
Lemon questioned why "evangelicals were so willing to call out, say Bill Clinton's behavior but not President Trump's?"
Graham argued that there's a difference between Clinton's extramarital affair and Trump's "alleged affairs."
"This happened 11, 12, 13, 14 years ago," he said. "And so, I think there is a big difference and not that we give anybody a pass, but we have to look at the timeline and that was before he was in office."
Graham argued that the President has matured over the years. However, Lemon cited controversial tweets and recent reports of Trump's derogatory remarks regarding some nations in Africa.
"There is a lot of presidents that have had rough language and a lot of these things that have been accused of the President, I am not sure are true," Graham said. "He says he didn't do it. And the others that said he didn't do it."
In his continued defense of Trump, Graham said the President is a businessman, not a politician and "he talks a certain way" to get his point across. Graham pointed out that Trump has "offended" people, but asserted that God had put him in the White House for a reason.
"I believe Donald Trump is a good man," he said. "He did everything wrong as a candidate and he won, and I don't understand it. Other than I think God put him there."

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Friday hailed an America that is "roaring back" just as his government was releasing figures showing a year of economic growth well short of what he told people to expect.
Trump's speech to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, overstated U.S. economic performance on several fronts. A look at several of his claims and how they compare with the facts:
TRUMP: "Since my election, we've created 2.4 million jobs. And that number is going up very, very substantially."
THE FACTS: Actually, job growth is going down.
Looking at annual totals, rather than since the November 2016 election, U.S. companies and other employers added 2.1 million jobs in 2017. That was actually the lowest job growth in seven years. It's not surprising that job gains are slowing, which typically happens when unemployment has fallen to very low levels and there are fewer people to hire. Right now, it is 4.1 percent, the lowest in 17 years. Still, Trump's assertions that hiring is picking up is wrong.
TRUMP: "After years of stagnation, the United States is once again experiencing strong economic growth."
THE FACTS: This is an exaggeration. The economy is doing better by some measures but data released right as Trump finished speaking shows it hasn't yet accelerated meaningfully since his inauguration.
Since the Great Recession ended in 2009, the economy has expanded at an average annual pace of 2.1 percent, which makes it the slowest recovery since World War II. The Commerce Department said Friday the economy grew 2.3 percent in 2017, Trump's first year in office. Most economists expect better in 2018. But the United States hasn't yet entered a sustained period of faster growth.
Trump was gunning for 3 percent or better — and crowing about his chances. He reached that goal in two quarters and frequently pointed out that President Barack Obama never saw 3 percent growth for a year.
"It was not like that in your last administration," he told a Pensacola, Florida, rally on Dec. 8. "Economic growth last quarter surged to 3.3 percent. You know where it was, right? When we started —you know where it was? Bingo. (Now) 3.3 percent and it's going a lot higher. You know, I used to hear, you'll never hit 3 percent. You'll never hit two and half. You figure maybe 2.3 percent, 2.4 percent."
Those skeptics figured correctly — it was 2.3 percent.
TRUMP: "The tax cut bill is expected to raise the average American's household income by more than $4,000."
THE FACTS: Most mainstream economists are skeptical of this figure. The average household will see its income rise $1,610 in 2018 because of cuts in income tax, according to the Tax Policy Center.
The $4,000 figure refers to an estimate by White House economist Kevin Hassett that the cut in the corporate tax rate, to 21 percent from 35 percent, will lift household income by that much on average. This is based on the idea that companies will use their higher profits to invest more in machinery and other tools that will make workers more productive and therefore able to demand higher pay. That may happen, but it would take years to occur and most economists expect the benefit, if any, for most workers will be smaller.
TRUMP: "The world's largest company, Apple, announced it plans to bring $245 billion in overseas profits home to America. Their total investment into the United States economy will be more than $350 billion over the next five years."
THE FACTS: This is misleading: It's not clear from Apple's statement that it is actually increasing investment in the U.S. from its current levels.
Under the new tax law, the company is paying $38 billion in taxes on profits it held overseas — taxes it had previously avoided paying by keeping the money offshore. That's included in the $350 billion. It also said it will continue to purchase goods and services from U.S. suppliers at its current pace, which would equal $275 billion over five years.
Finally, it said it would invest $30 billion over the next five years in a new campus and other buildings, computers, and other equipment. Yet based on the company's annual statements, it's not certain this is an increase, either. The company doesn't specify how much of its investment is in the U.S. and how much overseas. Apple invested more than $13 billion worldwide in 2017.
