Revised data showed U.S. gross domestic product grew at an annualized 3.3% in the quarter ending June, surpassing the consensus forecast of 3.1% by Dow Jones, as well as the Commerce Department’s initial estimate of 3%.

A key measure called “final sales to private domestic purchasers” jumped to 1.9% from the previous figure of 1.2%, noted CNBC’s Jeff Cox. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the figure tracks “the sum of personal consumption expenditures and gross private fixed investment,” or, in short, the economic health of consumers and corporations. By this criterion, both seem to be chugging along healthily even amid tariff uncertainty.

Man. I just HATE good economic news.
Well, I would if I were a Democrat, hoping for bad news I can blame on Trump.
Pretty sad they're reduced to hoping for a poor economy, but ORANGEMANBAD!!! ORANGEMANBAD!!

And it gets better, as more people who are responsible for compiling the numbers are fired and people who give better numbers are put in place. He who controls the people, control the numbers.

Do you understand that this indicates that the fat rapist NOT implementing his tariffs is better for the economy?

I'm guessing, no.
 
And it gets better, as more people who are responsible for compiling the numbers are fired and people who give better numbers are put in place. He who controls the people, control the numbers.
Can you demonstrate this has anything to do with the positive revision of GDP growth?

Can you prove it does not, as people that do not give better numbers are summarily fired?
 
Can you prove it does not...
Your claim, onus lies with you.

But here's a hint:
Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, not the Bureau of Economic Analysis.

So, again:
Can you demonstrate this has anything to do with the positive revision of GDP growth?
 
Oh look! MORE good news:

This figure was 2.9% in Q4 2024, so it fell pretty hard under Trump. It’s less good news when you look at where we were under Biden.
