no most businesses are not like an evil cartoon character, however you can't tell me that if a company was able to cut corners they wouldn't?

Regulations are a bridle on productivity and meeting timelines. Waiting on government.

From the time the people say we need a road, it takes 15-20 years before breaking ground, especially in California. Trump has it down to one year, to speed up the much needed infrastructure.
If your a company who can't make it in the world do to regulations than you shouldn't be in business

I will reserve judgement with this new tax bill (the only real piece of legislation passed).

We have had 96 months of positive job growth.....2017 using your numbers of 2.06 million means we were down from 2016 (I thought they were roughly the same).....could be things are slowing.
At Davos he touted that he had created 2.4 million jobs in the 14 months since he took office but failed to mention that during the 14 months prior to his election 2.8 million jobs were created. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/26/u...act-check.html

I wish that he didn't always have to engage in this one upsmanship it makes him look foolish and it's not necessary, the economy is good and that should be enough of a talking point. But it's a large mature economy and I think that after what? 88 or 89 straight months of job growth, it's normal that there should be some slowing. And if I were Trump I would be careful in bragging about the stock market, it looks really bubbly to me.

Oh look its opposite day!
Since you get your news from music video awards, you may be lacking in awareness. Leftists seem to think they are in a position of influence.

President Trump is kicking-*****!

State of the Union up next. Stay tuned!

Also, under Trump, our military has radically reduced ISIS and their Caliphate.
Trump told our generals to just do it! And then, unlike Obama, he got out of their way.....

Will Trump have learned to read from a Teleprompter without sounding and looking robotic and pronounce words and sentences in clear coherent English?

Its a tall order, we know. Make Trump University graduates everywhere proud, Mr. Trump.

As someone that detests Trump and his supporters, the one positive about Trump taking credit for everything short of oxygen, he can't blame anyone else. Something always happens.

What quarter did Obama take credit for a GDP over 3%
Estimates are, 4%-5% by the 2018 mid terms.
