I can't tell if they honestly don't know or are just so desperate for any type of win or justification for Daddy that they willingly go along

I would suggest it is impossible for an advanced mature 4th Level Economy to grow at rates higher than 3% annually. It might get an occasional quarter over 3%, but not yearly.

You don't produce anything.

You can't wear healthcare. You can't put it in your car and drive it, you can't make anything else out of it and you can't trade it for anything else.

The same with dog-walking or house-sitting.

There is a huge amount of uncertainty with this GDP print.

They will be revising GDP going back decades. This could have a huge impact on what gets reported.

It might be 4 or 5%, but it might also be 2%.

They periodically revise their method of determining GDP, and that results in revisions.

"...However, the growth rate for the three months ending June hardly looks likely to come anywhere near the level that was reached in the later years of the Clinton administration..."

Clinton had the advantage of being in office during the Internet boom.
