People were quick to respond and remind the President-Elect:

@realDonaldTrump are you SERIOUSLY claiming to be the hope of the world?! You’ve done absolutely NOTHING yet. You can’t take credit.

Mr Trump was reminded that he can’t really claim credit for the Christmas spending because it has been over 2 trillion dollars since 2000.
