Our economy owed to trump?

Er..ummm.. if he killed it, how come the GOP has control of the legislative branch and the executive branch of the federal government, not to mention the majority of governorships and state legislatures? Looks to me like he just put it to sleep long enough for ONimrod to get elected.

Just like everything else Georgy Boy did, he gave it a try but ultimately fucked it up.

The GOP controls the House because of STATE politics, not the natl gop brand,

Nice adaptive argument device you got there. You're argument went from He killed the brand to ; there's two brands and only one of them is one of them is dead.

which is now the brand of Trump,

Hmmmm… when did the GOP change it's name and branding to "Trump"? Trump is the current face of the brand not the brand itself and based on current political realities the "brand" is doing ok from the federal level right on down the line.

which has nothing to do with princlples of limited govt and fiscal discipline. And the gop controls the WH and SC because of Comey.

What does any of that have to do with the GOP "brand" ?

There was no brand of Trumpism until W killed the gop brand. The gop as we knew it since at least Eisenhower is dead, and probably for good at least as a "Republican" brand. It's not an adaptive argument to look at reality. The gop is now a nativisit white nationalism.

Er..umm.. just because you see it that way doesn't mean that it's the "brand", you're defining a political party "brand" by nothing more than the current party leader, which is silly. It's like trying to define the Coca-Cola brand by nothing more than who the current CEO is and what your personal perception of him/her is.

Stop being intellectually dishonest Fox. It's beneath you. The gop was not anti-free trade, immigration and pro deficit until W took down the establishment paving the way for the takeover of Birthirsim.

Say what ? Are we both living in the same country? There have been prominent "anti-free trade, immigration and pro deficit" elements in the GOP since at least the Nixon era.

You are substituting your own personal perceptions of Trump and the extremes for the GOP "brand", your personal perceptions of Trump, et. al. do not equal the general perception of the party "brand" (which is associated primarily with social/fiscal conservatism, pro-business, low taxes, pro-military and small(er) government ) AND ONCE AGAIN the political realities indicate that the GOP "brand" is doing fine post-Bush, in fact the numbers indicate that it's doing better now than it did before Prince George entered the national stage.

WTF is "Birthirsim"?

If the economy was tanking right now who would get the Blame Obama or Trump? Rhetorical question the right would blame Obama the left Trump.

GDP was revised up to 4.8%. If it gets to 5% Mueller will have to start arresting random people feeding pigeons in Times square to deflect.

Don't take Trump's word for it...small business optimism is also hovering around record levels, as tracked by the National Federation of Independent Businesses, in part thanks to the Trump administration’s campaign to reduce regulations and taxes. “Small businesses are as optimistic as we’ve ever seen since we began surveying them,” Hassett said.

That sounds like something worth practically nothing...

U.S. first-quarter growth trimmed on weak consumer spending

Gross domestic product increased at a 2.2 percent annual rate, the Commerce Department said on Wednesday in its second estimate of first-quarter GDP, instead of the previously reported 2.3 percent pace. While business spending was stronger than initially estimated, inventory investment was far smaller than the government reported last month.
