And you know this 1.2% number will get revised down under 1% in a couple of months.

barely improving from Q1's downwardly revised 0.8% advance

I think it is a safe bet that Q2's "growth" estimate will also be revised downward.

And the narcissist in chief fool likes to paint himself as the Left’s Reagan. FUBO, you aren’t fit to wipe Ronnie’s behind.

Other than the “Great Depression” decade this has to be the worst performing 8 years in history.

On Varney this morning Scott from CME asked this question: Can someone explain to me that unemployment when from 10% to 4.9% and the all the while the economy is shrinking? Explain that to me.

The guest economist, John, answered: That is a great question. I am shocked. I saw the this latest report on GDP, the YOY growth rate for GDP for the 2nd quarter is 1.2% while jobs grew by 1.8%. That makes no sense. That is like negative productivity.

Remember you have to subtract 3.5 percent from the GDP to get the real GDP because they have inflated the way the GDP is calculated.

The economy is shrinking. Or....at least it was until a certain election took place last month.
