“Team Obama: Sorry, America, the ‘new normal’ may be here to stay
The good times may be over for good. In a speech to the Economic Club of New York yesterday, US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said the US GDP growth rate, adjusted for inflation, is now projected to run a little above 2% a year.”

Those of us who voted for Trump…not just the folks who voted against the career criminal, but who voted for the policies that the Trump candidacy promised, have felt gratified as a result. The NYSun does a great job of summarizing the effects the Trump presidency has had on the economy.
1.“Four large secrets that most of the American press is afraid to utter are that the American economy is growing in a way that is directly helpful to the most vulnerable segments of society;
that the administration’s trade policy is clearly working;
that the flow of illegal immigrants is sharply diminishing;
and that for the first time in 65 years, the United States has practically ceased to be a net oil importer.
2. These were all promises of the Trump candidacy, and the first three were areas where previous administrations had promised action but failed to deliver.
3. … the Democratic presidential candidates still prattle compulsively about “tax cuts for the rich” before embarking on the ride of the Valkyries to stratospheric taxes, open borders, socialized medicine, the Green Terror, and the dreaded “national conversation” on trillion-dollar block-vote buying through racial reparations.
4. …workers’ earnings increasing at 3.4% annually, a rate not seen since the best of the Reagan years, and the poverty rate has declined to 11.8%, the best figure that has been recorded since the end of the Clinton administration and still resolutely proceeding in the right direction.
5. Unemployment is at its lowest percentage since the Lyndon Johnson administration more than 50 years ago (and the numbers then were helped by having 545,000 conscripts in Vietnam).
6. Minority groups are the principal beneficiaries of the Trump economy; this isn’t trickle-down, it’s surge-up. Average income for female-led single-parent households jumped 7.6% last year, well ahead of gains in higher income groups.” Trump's Four Biggest Secrets Are the Economy
