After more than 2 years, Trump “owns” the economy… for better or worse.

Those intent on tearing him down find fault where there isn’t any.  The old saying, “you are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts”, doesn’t apply to them.  Creating their own “bad news” on the economy, Leftists have one objective.  Destroy the Trump Presidency and prevent his re-election… at any cost… with any fabricated facts and accusations.

An honest look at the economy should produce optimism.  One negative indicator is the growing national debt, now approaching $ 22 1/2 Trillion Dollars.  That is an area needing serious attention by an AWOL Congress.  On the whole, the economy is strong, and getting better.  Quite a change from recent Administrations.

Some facts:

• Real Nonresidential Fixed Investment was up 16% through 2018.  That’s the largest increase since 1993

• Decreased regulations have save American business over $ 30 Billion Dollars

• 7.6 Million job openings.  This is a new all-time record.

• Approval of generic drugs have save consumers $26 Billion Dollars in two years.

• America is now the largest producer of crude oil in the WORLD, surpassing even Saudi Arabia.

• GDP growth hit 3.2%.  Nearly EVERYONE said it couldn’t… wouldn’t… happen.

• Wages are increasing.  The highest rate of increase is in the lower income sector.

These are just a few of the many positive economic indicators.  Add to this the positive changes in international trade, and other pending policy improvements.  In spite of the stonewalling from Leftists, the Trump Administration has effectively moved the economy in a very positive direction.

President Trump has done things that previous Presidents not only didn’t do, they didn’t even TALK about.  For instance, putting wealthy countries on notice that America will not continue to provide for their national defense and security for FREE.  Trump is insisting that they pony up to contribute.  He is making large strides to balance trade and create a fair trade and tariff environment with other countries.

On the economy, Trump gets a high grade, even in the face of the relentless attacks and opposition.

The economy will re-elect him for a second term.
