First, that means that three years ago, the economy had a quarter that was faster growth, which undercuts Trump's brag that his growth is better than Obama's. The reality is that quarterly growth goes up and down.
Second, this is a bit like Schrödinger's cat -- the economy is strong but the economy is weak, so we need tax cuts.

Well put. It does seem that the Republicans fully employ cognitive dissonance (for those in Rio Linda, the ability for a person to have two conflicting beliefs at once; rather common in schizophrenic people).
Will the press talk about trump's successful results in such a short time with the economy, rising blue collar wages, low unemployment rate and a record consumer confidence index or continue to focus on BS like his tweets and Matt Lauder?

Trump is focused on Lauder.
I guess its good he is busy tweeting and golfing, because the country seems to run better when he stays out of things.

I suspect the latter.
It's no different than the Trump tax-cuts: In reply to criticism that the tax-cuts will blow up the debt, they say, 'well, the middle class tax-cuts expire, so more revenue will be coming in.'
In reply to criticism that middle class tax-cuts will expire raising taxes on the middle class, they say, 'future Congresses will extend them.'
They can't both be true. If future Congresses will extend them, then they blow up the debt more than the added $1.5 trillion (plus what is already scheduled to be added to the debt.) If Congresses doesn't extend them the middle class gets a tax increase.
Amazing an administration that has a concept of how businesses/economies operate. As opposed to Barry Marx that we had for 8 long years.
Barry Marx? Another poster that has no clue what socialism or communism are.
Do you hear that echo? That is the sound of Infowars, Fox News and Limbaugh running through your mind.
