BOOM! The Trump economy is skyrocketing to unseen heights.
Even as liberals want him to fail he is still an endless success!
Why are you trumpeting government employment and economic numbers that the sexual predator/ fat man said he didn't believe when BO was in office? So they're real now but weren't them?
Employment growth has averaged 174,000 jobs per month this year, down from the average monthly gain of 187,000 in 2016.
I don't want to see the economy fail; its great that we are at or near full employment. I do find it interesting how the current weaker jobs reports are now being praised when better results during Obama administration were criticized.
Because Trump followers act like Trump. Announce everything as if it is a big deal, take credit for everything positive and do not take responsibility for anything negative.
Negative? Obama's fault. Positive? Trump did it.
Let us know when Trump does something actually difficult. He was not "handed a disaster" as he claimed. That is a lie. He was given a gift.
"...The 2016 census report underlines the strength of the economic recovery Obama oversaw after the worst recession in living memory...
American incomes rose significantly for a second year in a row in 2016, bouncing back after the lost decade that followed the last recession...latest household income figure is the highest ever reported by the Census Bureau – eclipsing the peak of $58,665 reached in 1999..."
“Real median household income has finally completed its nine-year slog of digging out of the ditch,” said Chris Christopher, executive director of IHS Markit.
The US poverty rate also fell to 12.7%, its lowest rate since 2007. Some 40.6 million Americans were living in poverty in 2016, down from 43.1 million in 2015...."

"The labor force participation rate remained at 62.7 percent in November and has shown no clear trend over the past 12 months. The employment-population ratio, at 60.1 percent, changed little in November and has shown little movement, on net, since early this year."
Wages have done nothing different than what we saw in 2015 and 2016. They are not "exploding."
Manufacturing jobs have picked up, but I wouldn't exactly call it a boom.

Trump/ Trump Admin does a better job promoting itself than the Obama Admin did.
The slant of the article within your link attempts to justify why tax cuts are not needed.
I am an Independent. I voted for Trump. I do not want him/ his admin to fail.
Having said this, I despise Trump the person.
Don’t listen to media lies; he and his family are wonderful people who have stood up for Israel, cut YOUR taxes, and reinvested into protecting our streets.
He is a great person and remember, you’ve never met him in person before.

Yeppers. When you see threads like this, where the thread starter is overjoyed about some silly, non factual information, it gives you a little insight into how Donald Trump got elected. Smoke and mirrors, and they lapped it all up and asked for more smoke and mirrors. They overlooked one little line in that article they posted:
U.S. job growth increased at a strong clip in November, painting a portrait of a healthy economy that analysts say does not require the kind of fiscal stimulus that President Donald Trump is proposing, even though wage gains remain moderate.
As for the economy being strong, get down on your knees and thank Barack Obama, kiddies. He turned a dying economy into one that continues to improve even today, IN SPITE OF HAVING AN INEPT, NON PERFORMING PRESIDENT NOW SITTING IN THAT OFFICE ! Trumpees are so quick to forget what the economy looked like in 2008.......I do not forget.
