Does the OP realize that Trump has already reneged on healthcare, prescription drugs and even the tax overhaul (remember he said he would pay more tax under the new plan).
And "hiring the best people", having "better economy than Obama", "making the best trade deals" etc. etc.
The only campaign promises he really kept are where he promised to be a racist jackass and buffoon.
3.9% U.S. unemployment rate and the lowest unemployment rate for blacks and hispanics in U.S. history is pretty good, don't you think?
Come on, man. Trump is killin it.
And so goes a real big problem for America...
Too many Americans can't understand who or really what should get credit for the ups and down of our economy, let alone when or why. Trump is not "killin it" in terms of doing much that makes a positive difference. Trump is simply presiding over economic developments that have been long in the making before he came along. What Trump CAN take credit for more directly is the likes of his unilateral actions, like with North Korea and/or the US embassy in Jerusalem, but those have little to do with our unemployment rate too.
Hey, but no doubt you and Trump and all his supporters know better, so don't mind me or the truth any. We all know well by now how this routine goes...
the difference between the Trump economy and the Obama economy is that Trump is allowing the private sector to invest and work vs. Obama's life support injection using federal borrowing and obmacare manipulation. capital is being attracted to, not fleeing, the U.S. The tax cuts were meant to bring jobs back home that had been lost. We are now more competitive on the world stage.
Trump is doing some things right and some things wrong. we are in a cycle and he just happens to be in charge right now. we are likely too far gone (thanks to previous administrations) for his fixes to save us. but he's trying. he's got 6 more years to make improvements...

trumps big gift to corps was his "tax reform". 2 Trillion of borrowing right there. If you're under the impression that share buybacks and increased dividends (big results of his HUGE tax "reform) are truly beneficial to the middle class then you may need to take some classes. Somehow you missed the job growth and economic gains under Obama? you must be Rip Van Winkle. Please also explain "Obamacare manipulation" of the economy, I'm quite interested in learning this goody.
