GDP growth is flirting with a glide path that will be roughly double the mean GDP for Obama's Presidency by the time of the 2018 election. This is due almost entirely to reversing moronic EOs and regulations imposed under the previous administration.

Hillary and Obama's attempt to project their criminal negligence onto Trump with the Russian collusion story appears likely to bite them in the butt due to the clamor over the politicization of the DOJ under Obama.

The Moore gambit is uncovering more perverted D politicians than R politicians.

So, how much more unexpected slack will Trump get?
 
Call it luck, call it fate, call it skill.....doesn't really matter, just keep on winning.
 
Well, we saw how well the economy did after the last 8 year stint under the GOP. And we saw President Obama put the pieces back together, and hand the present President a robust economy. So how long will it take the treasonous fat senile old orange clown to break that economy? I don't think he will get the chance. That will be left to President Pence, and he will lose the 2020 election.
 
A lot and I mean a lot! Clinton used a great economy to cover a lot of things. We. Are at what 3.7? Tax reform passes and we hit 6 or 7 and we will be looking to slow it down due to inflation.
 
And this positive economic news is all despite the massive conspiracy amongst the MSM, Hollywood, Academia, Corporate America, and Politicians to undermine our President.

Reagan have us 12 years of GOP control. You better get ready for 12 more!
 
Gorsuch is a good win for the GOP.

There has been almost nothing else of significance in repeal and replace, tax reform, the wall, deporting illegal aliens in large numbers, sanctuary cities, etc.

What have you fellows won? No legislation of any importance passed by the GOP.

Obama's only piece of signature legislation after 8 years, the only thing he'll be remembered for, was the Affordable Care Act. And everyone knows what a clusterfuck that turned out to be.

No, sadly you can deny it all you want. But that magnificent bastard President Donald J. Trump has done more for this country in one short year than Obama did in 8.

Your problem is that you just don't recognize greatness when you see it.

Can you please describe what you consider a robust economy? Here is a graph for you to reference. It shows how BO’s economic growth compares to his predecessors. He’s the one at the end with the lowest growth of any president since WW2. Yep, even the Bush boys had more growth than BO.

Obama’s signature work is that he pulled the US back from the brink of total economic collapse and set it on the road to prosperity, setting records for sustained growth and employment and almost tripling the stock market. Something that Trump is benefitting from right now.

The ACA may not survive the meddling of the Republicans but the chaos that will follow its collapse won’t soon be forgotten by voters. Health care is the #1 concern of voters. Millions achieve affordable health care under Obama. When they lose that, they’ll blame Trump and the Republicans.

Sure, deregulation will boost the economy - in the short run. But there will be a price to pay down the road...

The radical libs keep fantasizing about the russian alice in wonderland collusion tale.

Trumps actions to date have very little to do with the current state of the U.S. economy, sure give him a little credit for nibbling around the edges with to respect to some limited deregulation and his tax reform agenda has had a positive effect with respect to the equities markets but that doesn't add up to much.

The economy is where it is today almost entirely due to the fact that we're in the late stage of the recovery cycle and (more importantly) we've had historically accommodative monetary policy for the last decade (not only from the Fed but also from major Central Banks around the globe), you can also thrown in the fact that the major economies around the global are finally in synch with respect to being in recovery.

Contrary to popular belief, the POTUS has very little control over the economy, he/she can influence it a bit via fiscal policy but the real power to influence the economy in the U.S. as well as in all the other developed countries lies with the Central Bankers and their member banks.

... and now that the Fed is taking away the qualitative and quantitative easing punch bowls we'll see if it can manage to dig its way out of this unprecedented streak of money supply expansion without fomenting another severe recession.
