GDP is growing at 3% inflation is down tariffs are a good thing

You have to look deeper than the single number, just like Q1 GDP. They’re skewed because of the effects of tariffs and the way businesses changed inventory and importation habits.

It’s not nearly so rosy. Positive, but weak growth.

Correct. There was a lot of frontloading in orders from overseas to get ahead of the impending tariffs. However, if the surge in imports increased our trade imbalance, that can actually depress GDP growth, though not always.

3.0 GDP growth. That's a long way from Trump's promised 4 to 6 percent.

The surge in imports reduces GDP

Rule #1: Trump can do nothing right.

Rule #2: If Trump does something right, refer to rule #1.

It's gospel to the left.

That's what I just said. Although that is not always the case.

I imagine government spending is a huge part of that result. Enjoy the deficit.

The GDP equation is expressed as GDP = C + I + G + (X - M), where C is consumer spending, I is business investment, G is government spending, and (X - M) represents net exports (exports minus imports). ​

Consumer spending is significantly slower growth in 2025 as compared to 2024 and investment is down.

Punctuation is your friend.

Inflation is not down. The July figures aren't out yet, but inflation has been rising since April.

Expect the Fed to keep interest rates where they are.

Since his renovation cost overruns gambit blew up in his face, I guess Cankles will have to go after Powell for owning a Japanese television.

Yes, inflation is indeed coming down in the US, but prices remain high. The annual inflation rate, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has cooled from a peak of 9.1% in June 2022 to 2.7% in June 2025, according to Bankrate. This means that while prices are still increasing, they are doing so at a slower pace than before. However, it's important to note that prices, overall, remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels. Google
The economy is thriving after Bidenomics crushed it and all it took was few months.

US grocery prices see biggest drop in nearly five years

Inflation cooled for the third straight month in April even after some of President Donald Trump’s tariffs took effect, though economists and many business owners expect inflation will climb in … Already an INSIDER? Sign in. Already an INSIDER? Sign in

Energy costs will drop as well.

I guess they didn't expect such government profligacy nor such pre tariff stocking up.
