That covers about 90% of the country, and its not a club that is exclusive to just Trump supporters. Both parties supporters are drinking their own branded Kool Aid.

Ya got it backwards Drew!

CBO and most every economist has said ‘temporary bump, and we’ll return to normal in 2019”

Why else did GDP go to 4% in Q2 if it wasn’t tax cuts? - tariffs maybe?

Just curious.

TIA

Supply-side cuts are structured in such a way that over years you will see improvements in productivity.

As to why GDP went to 4%, I don't know because I don't look at quarterly rates. Quarterly GDP rates are way too volatile to make a conclusion. When they release figures for this year, then that will be worth examining.

Hope they intend to cut spending to go along with it.

I would be happy to, provided that you send me enough to cover my family's share of the Federal deficit given your apparent affection for funding said tax cuts by way of deficit spending.

But you know how much those Trump fans like to wave at the 1%er people in their yachts, which they bought with their yuge tax cut!
