Tax cuts reduced revenues not in absolute terms, but to a number lower than had been expected before the cuts occurred.

Here’s the thing. If Obama had sounded like Trump and done the things Trump has done, the recovery would have been years faster in coming. But, as he told a reporter who pointed out that lower taxes increased government income, “At some point it’s not about money. It’s about fairness.” That sums up the difference between a raging economy and one that is biding its time waiting for the commie to be gone.

The number of recessions and stock market crashes the mass media called ahead of time: zero. The stock market has never crashed when there is widespread chatter predicting it.

Blinking headline on Yahoo right now:

“Are Millenials Prepared for the Coming Recession?”

Of course. CNN said it, so they know it’s false.

Exactly right, and that’s the infuriating bit.

“I’d rather be out of work and hate myself than have a *conservative* in the White House.”

Blindingly stupid, short-sighted, narrow-minded lemmings.

Partner, the WSJ Editorial Board needs to resign right now, since they are all in favor of this former Fed Bank guy Dudley saying that the Fed Board should not back up President Trump. What are they smoking???

The Fed was all in the tank for taking American jobs out of the U.S. and giving it to China when Dudley was in NY Fed. What an idiot and the WSJ is in with the Chamber of Horrors, which used to be the Chamber of Business/Chamber of Commerce in D.C.???

These guys just Hate our POTUS which happens to be President Trump. Heck, in 2016 there are some folks that are going to jail by Atty. Gen. Barr this year and next for trying to unseat a duly elected president in President Trump.

Now it is the Fed that is trying to get President Trump out in the 2020 elections.

"How do you like them apples???"

Unbelievable!!!
