MSM stories tomorrow:

"In another sign that Trump's ill-conceived economic policies are not working, the Fed released a disappointing report of only 5.3% gdp growth today. Analysts had predicted a healthier report of 7%, but today's numbers reflect a failing policy. Dem leaders Pelosi, Schumer and others have already slammed the failed Trump policies by saying today's disappointing numbers are further proof that Trump only wants to help his rich friends at the expense of working Americans."

About 90% of liberals will believe that word for word.

I always here the Globalists say we don’t have enough people to to the job.

Yeah because if Row v Wade was never allowed chances are we would have the population to fill the jobs. After all how many babies have been killed?

In any event, President Trump should offer HUGE TAX CREDITS a to have big families to fill these jobs in the future that are permanent and guaranteed.

Also President Trump needs to make the tax cuts permanent with another big cut. Do it before the election and force the Democrats to fight it.

THIS CANNOT BE POSSIBLE...
Obama told us that we would never again see 3% growth, those days were behind us now. The jobs were never coming back.

The media told us that anyone who thought differently was obviously a racist. The Media wouldn’t lie to me, would they??

Somebody predicted today 5.3," Trump said.

The "exact" figure of 5.3% he quotes means that he knows the number, otherwise, he'd be quoting "upwards of 4%" or "upwards of 5%". He's being coy.

“About 90% of liberals will believe that word for word.”

About 90% of liberals live in places like California and New York, that Democrat policies have been wrecking for decades, and where protected illegals keep wages and opportunities down for average citizens.

"And once again due to Trump's inequities the rich get richer faster than the poor get richer!"

You know it's coming.

If it’s a blowout number, count on the Dims to create some disaster or drama as a diversion. Then the weekend will be here to reset the news cycle.

Forget the left, they’re a cult. Lets see if the never Trumpers and places like Drudge with blast this headline (if the growth is that big) like they do all the other fake bulls***.

Every single elected Republican should be in front of every available camera tomorrow being as aggressive as possible. Call Obama an idiot or low IQ, send bags of crumbs to Nancy Pelosi’s office. Rub it in and trigger the hell out of the Left.

Something tells me the high 2014 number had something to do with rolling in Obamacare exchanges numbers... or at least something to do with that. Anyhow, it was a phony number as I recall.
