It’s shocking he didn’t get that before being sworn in for his first term.

Holy smokes!

I feel like I should get 2 more jobs, and opening another business so I can harness this mad power.

But you realize, don't you, that Obama is responsible for the economy, not Trump. RE: I heard it from the MSM.

Because NPR tells you what the swamp rats want you to believe?

“heard it on NPR”

None of my business, but why would you listen to NPR?

I live in the mountains of West Virginia and have a 45 minute commute to work and back every day, for the vast majority of the trip the local NPR station is the only news/talk I can get. Besides it never hurts to do some opposition research and find out what the other side is saying...

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification. Good knowledge!

Just in case you wish to track it: GDPNow

I don't know how often they update it. Obviously at least twice a week at times. I suspect they do it when whenever one or more of the economic indicators they use issue updates.

5% !

WOW JUST WOW !!

But the Financial Times wrote that Trump should thank Obama for laying the foundation for a healthy economy.

Obamaloona never got above 3% and barely scratched 2.

If this prediction bears out, the Fed will raise interest rates as a buffer against inflation.
