I didn't vote for trump because he was a choir boy, I voted for some one who could run a country and Trump has.
Obama ran the country and on the economy did better than Trumpo will ever do .
If Trumpo were running the country according to what he promised you there would be 3.0+ GDP for at least a few years. And corporations would be increasing their investments for long term future growth. That’s not happening.
“The good news is that corporations are increasing their investments again after a slump in 2015 and 2016. Over the past year,
real business investment has increased at a 6.1% annual rate, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis in the Commerce Department. It’s a good number, but nothing jaw-dropping.
The bad news is that net investment is very weak by historical standards. Companies have loads of cash, but
little is going back into the business.”
Businesses are investing more, but it’s not the tax cut
Looking at overall trends there is very little change from when Obama ran the country based on raw economic data to the current resident in the White House.
You can like the economy under Trumpo but it is forthright dishonest to declare Trumpo some kind of spectacular catalyst to a real unprecedented economic boom while at the same time trashing Obama’s record as an economic flop needing rescue by the Great White Hope.
It’s dishonest when you do what you do.
Why do you need to do it?
