I had to go through 45 channels to catch the President speaking today.
The GDP among many other topics was mentioned. Great news.
Sad that the major stations were suppressing this. Our economy is
heading in the right direction as he sends a message to the world that
no one screws with the United States of America under his watch.
President Donald Trump is the master of keeping all his opponents off balance.

I saw a recent poll that put newscasters as the second least trusted profession, just above their friend the politicians. Birds of a feather. It’s sad, news outlets once had some integrity.
If it finally moves his numbers then I would agree that this is extremely good.
So far the economy is not helping him that much, no real movement since 2016 from economic data. Concerns with trade deals, little wage growth, top heavy economy w/ little incentive for workers at the bottom end, very Own Stocks or Bust economy.
Keep in mind a 3.2 GDP number is only big news to those that were concerned with slow down. To the average voter 3.2% sounds like every quarter since 2011.
Sad that you think the success of this nation is based on (incorrect) polls. It’s much bigger than that. Also, 2016 was a terrible year for growth, 1.6%. There has been indisputable upward momentum since 2016.
Again, it looks like the media and their “analysts” were wrong again about a “slowdown” beginning at the start of this year. We are seeing the opposite so far.
Horrible day for Demonics hoping to crash the economy....Nancy did it before as Speaker and she may try to do it again but now she has Trump to block her.

The FED can do it - no problem for them to make moves that tank the market and economy.
Haven't you noticed how the Leftists are giving any proposed Fed Chairmen the Kavanaugh Treatment?
I'm sure that the Trump Administration is aware that the only chance the Democrats have in 2020 is to Crash the US Economy .... I expect they are taking precautions.
It is a case that would make Sherlock Holmes proud.
Growth in the first quarter smashed expectations, fueled in part by strong inventory building. According to the government, $32 billion of goods were added to inventories this quarter, or $128 billion annualized.
This stockpiling of goods boosted first-quarter GDP growth by about 70 basis points and helped propel growth to a 3.2% annual rate, well above forecasts.
The problem is that it is not at all obvious where these inventories came from. Goods have to come from somewhere, either produced by domestic firms or imported from abroad.
