For several months, Donald Trump talked up the quarterly GDP report from the spring and early summer of 2018, when economic growth soared. He’ll probably have much less to say about the new data, released this morning.
That is hysterical.
The economy was at 2.6%, very high in the midst of winter slowdown for housing, and China pushing extreme shipping to undercut Trump.
And he STILL beat in his 2nd year anything that Obama did in 8 years.
Are these liberals all on the same mailing lists getting the same talking points? They are all talking down these numbers.
