US President Donald Trump says an improving economy is ``the greatest thing that can happen for race relations'' and the African-American community.

He invoked George Floyd's name this morning as he trumpeted the latest job numbers.

Trump told reporters, ``Hopefully George is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country.''

Trump added, ``This is a great day for him. It's a great day for everybody.''
