Thanks for sharing such great news and observations from your area.
Hopefully, President Trump’s magic touch will somehow resurrect another blighted urban disaster zone known as Baltimore, Maryland, which is about 40 miles down the road from me. Baltimore was once affectionately referred to as “Charm City,” but sadly now is practically another Chicago with record-setting murder rate and myriad maelstroms.

Like you, I pray that our awesome President enjoys two successful terms, celebrating as he MAGA!!!

2.5% growth now would feel like 3.5% in the immigration-fueled explosion of the labor market of the Bush or Obama years, or 4% in the era of mothers entering the workforce during the 60s, 70s and 80s, or 5% during the Clinton years, when both effects were being felt.

So will Trump achieve 4-5% growth: No. Maybe 3%. But even at 2.5%, workers will be doing much, much better than they have since the Gingrich or Reagan years.
