It's due to inflated numbers in 2017. Just moving around GDP increases. It's not like the % didn't happen, it's more like it happened in 2017 during the end of his first year and was never credited for it. But looks like it makes a good headline. No credit then, no credit now. Pieces of garbage. No one reads the articles. Just the headlines.HuMcK said:
Business investment growth was negative, and that ain't great after a round of huge tax cuts. Also notable that last years 3% growth was revised down to 2.5%.
It seems like yesterday when the Fed was raising rates with little inflation and at the same time that many economists were predicting a recession this year. This is why POTUS is constantly attacking the Fed. They always seem to be wrong (unless Obama is in office, then keep the interest rate close to zero).
You should blame the federal reserve but instead you blame Americans for wanting to keep more of their hard earned money you ass.
