Your stock went up a few points in my book. Thanks for posting.
Here's why I posted what I did, MattieB.
A greater quarterly growth in GDP occurred twice in 2014, and two other times during Obama's tenure.... no one on the right cheered about that, instead decrying the slowness of the recovery...
Listening to con media, they continue to ignore those numbers, instead repeating Trump's boast of economic growth of historic proportions and his prediction that the economy is on track to grow the highest since 2005...
When the economy started revving up, at the beginning of this year, after the corporate and wealthy tax cuts went into effect, I gave President Trump credit and expected a steady growth course. Many economists were expecting a steady growth in the US economy as businesses had more money to spend on growing and on wage increases and so the average person would have more to spend on consumer goods.
Then Trump ran the economy into a brick wall with his tariffs plans...growth stalled with the uncertainty due to threatened trade wars. Imagine the historic number that could've been, but for Trump's tariffs plans.
This took a lot longer to type than the previous post, but I wanted you to understand my perspective...
