Remarks and an Exchange With Reporters Prior to Departure for Greenville, North Carolina

October 15, 2020

The President. [Inaudible] So we're going to North Carolina. We have a tremendous crowd of people. They're great people, and we love them. And we're going to be there in a little while.

And then, we're going to Florida. We're going to Miami, and I think we're staying overnight in Miami.

And we're doing very well. The polls are looking actually great. We're doing very well, and we're going to have a big victory. And I look forward to it.

And some of you are traveling with us, I guess, and some of you aren't.

World Trade Organization

Q. Mr. President, the WTO—the WTO has given the EU——

The President. I can't hear you.

Q. Mr. President, the WTO says that they're going to give the EU a green light to put in tariffs. Will you strike back?

The President. Say it again.

Q. In the Boeing case. The Boeing case.

The President. Yes, we won a $7½ billion case, and that was in—that was a great case to win, as you know. And we'll see what happens. If they strike back, then we'll strike much harder than they'll strike. They don't want to do anything, I can tell you that.

Q. Are—[inaudible]—part two?

The President. But we won—we won a big case, $7½ billion.

NOTE: The President spoke at 12:13 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House prior to boarding Marine One.
