Can’t be true. Obama said growth higher than 2% is impossible. Are you asking me to believe that obama lied?

[freedumb2003]

Ho
Ly
Crap!!!

Man, MAGA again!

[RoosterRedux]

Now that’s what I’m talking about!

[nopardons]

And NO WAY can this be because of policies that Obama had in place! :-)

Bonds getting DESTROYED by this news. The interest rate explosion is going to get UGLY.

[dynoman]

Wow. That means 2017 Q4 downward revision was crap.

[Mr. K]

I predicted it months ago... the economy will hit 7% growth next year.

Free market economists knew that tax cuts, regulation cuts, and increasing the money supply by bringing back money from overseas would stimulate the economy

[taildragger]

Does anyone here remember me saying Team Trump is swinging for the "Green Monster" and put it over the wall aka IMHO they are going for 6 to 8%.

Think of all the "stuff" that hasn't kicked in to add to GDP...

* Getting rid of Dodd-Frank Bifrication of banking 1% GDP.
* All the exporting of Oil and LNG / CNG hasn't kicked in, the ports aren't done. % GDP? who knows.
* New rules for Road Construction reducing paperwork, .5% GDP.
* All the Drugs that could get fast tracked 4000 - 100 that got approved. % GDP ? who knows.
* The repatriation of Off Shore Trillions for Capital for Business to expand? Who knows.
* The Tax Cut, especially the 20% Corp Rate, one Fed said it was worth 1.3% in GDP.
* Obamacare gone... I hear that could be worth 1% GDP....

And that isn't including the Electric Car Revolution I see coming, and other paradigm changing technologies that will rock our world in the next 7 years of PDJT.

And that is off the top of my head, what else? What did I forget Freepers!

IN the words of Ronald Reagan, You ain't seen nothing yet.

Trump is going to get 4% this year. 100%.

[Salvavida]

Someone troll the LA Times fish wrap for being wrong a usual.

[Dan in Wichita]

The Democrat Party talking point is that Obama's economic policies are finally starting to kick in, despite Trump's best effort to screw everything up.

This will be trumpeted by the MSM and 47% of the people will believe it. Only 3.01% more to go, and they are looking good for the midterms and 2020.

We have our work cut out for us, folks.

[OLDCU]

Unexpected. I got so tired of the “unexpected” revisions under Obama.

[aquila48]

That is huge!

[oincobx]

Take this with a grain of salt. GDPNow opened 4Q17 at 4.5% back in October. The advance estimate came in last week at 2.6%.

[bgill]

Pelosi will say it has nothing to do with Trump.

[Forty-Niner]

Oh my Gawd, did Trump find Obama’s lost “magic wand?”

Hold on folks the “Sorcerer’s Apprentice” is on the loose with a wand!

Watch out for dancing hippos......Lololol
