up to 3.3%

MAGA


In a good position going into the 4th qtr for 2017 to be above 3%.

With the hurricane losses, that is a phenomenal number.

magic wands waving everywhere!

This story has not aged well.

The idea of the Trump administration getting the economy back on track to 2 to 3 percent growth this year is "just fairy dust," a former Biden adviser told CNBC on Thursday

"It's really important to recognize [the Republicans] don't have a plan," Jared Bernstein said during an interview on CNBC's "Power Lunch." "History has very little correlation between changes in the tax code and [GDP]."

So, nothing then. I rest my case...lol

But seriously...tell me specifically what he has done and how that has positively effected the GDP, so I can give him credit.

Yeah, well you wouldn't admit to any positives anyway, so I just gave you the most obvious. No point in wasting time.

Through early October, Trump had eliminated 469 various regulations on business and has, by far, the lowest rate of new regulations imposed.

So there's that.

In my view, President's are more likely to screw it up than help it. I think DJT has simply gotten out of the way and the economy has responded.

You are smart enough to know the answer, you just don't like it.

Perhaps...but was Obama in the way? We saw the same type of growth for much of his presidency, right?

Source please. Not saying he hasn't, just want to read what they are. And also ascertain whether any of them can be attributed to positive GDP as of yet. Those things likely take a little time.

I believe the answer is "not much," outside of not really mucking things up with a ridiculous tax bill. Prove me wrong.

Sorry, but that's a cop out. If folks are going to imply that he's specifically done something to result in the economic results, they need to cite that.

I miss Obama and the downward GDP revisions that were released at 4:00 on Friday afternoons.

Obama never had better than 3% for any calendar year, which I believe makes him the first President in history to have such a lackluster economic performance.
