Specifically lay out for us what policies and actions Trump enacted to affect the economy. "slashing regulations" doesn't cut it, get into specific regulations and how they affected the economy.


Who knew that people are actually willing to invest in business when there is no bs red tape to go through. Shocking stuff!!

So what you are saying is that you can't show direct correlation from anything Trump has done and the current economy.

Or do you think it's just a coincidence that after the slowest economic recovery since ww2 that we just randomly get the highest GDP growth in over a decade? Ever think that maybe the answer is much easier in that previous leadership was just terrible at managing the economy. Occam's razor my friend

The Dow wasn't been close to the record and the minute he wins the election, it sets records high. It's like, I know you guys have some weird Reason to not like the guy but lets not pretend correlation equals causation. How many patterns of the economy getting better do you need?

BREAKING: Stocks making the biggest moves after hours: PAY, MDB & more

Economists say Trump might be boosting economic growth but overstates his role
Second-quarter GDP rebounded, but the first-half growth of 1.9 percent is similar to prior years.
Spending for business equipment did rise in the second quarter, but it's unclear how much of that was from a rebound in oil drilling that followed a rise in oil prices last winter.
The wealth effect through the stock market presents a better case for the president's claims.

While most economists say President Donald Trump may be overstating his responsibility for recent better growth and jobs numbers, they say his policies may have had a limited positive influence in some areas.
At the same time, they warn, there are ways the president might also be a drag on growth.
Take the GDP number announced on Friday. "Remember I was saying we will hit 3 (percent growth) at some point in the not-too-distant future, and everybody smiled and they laughed and thought we'd be at 1. And 2.6 is an unbelievable number, announced on Friday,'' the president said Monday.

Most estimates of second-quarter growth, however, were around 2.3 percent before the president's election. Growth in the first half of 2017 is averaging 1.9 percent, about what it's been for the past several years.
"It was obviously the case that the second quarter was a rebound from the first quarter,'' said Bruce Kasman, chief economist for JPMorgan. "First-half growth is no better than anything happening before that."
Economists say it's difficult for any president to have much effect on growth in the first full quarter in office, particularly one who hasn't passed any major economic legislation. To the contrary, the failure of health-care reform so far looks to have caused Wall Street to push back its expectations for tax reform and mark down the chance of it happening at all.
But as the market nears a record 22,000 Tuesday on the Dow Jones industrial average, those higher stock market prices and the rise in business confidence along with an end to the increase in regulations from the Obama administration could be having a positive effect.
Doug Holtz-Eakin, president of the American Action Forum (which bills itself as a "center-right think tank"), says President Trump put an end to rising regulatory costs. He pegged those costs at $890 billion over the eight years of the previous administration. Holtz-Eakin said that could help boost business confidence and, in turn, investment spending.

Remember when ending regulations we're mentioned earlier?

From your article... You're just believing the bullshit Trump feeds you.


Good thing we are in the second half. We are literally almost at 3%. Record high dows, low unemployment... Again, you want to attribute all this to Obama when if he had the skill, wouldnt have had an attrocious economy all 8 years. The article literally mentions business and consumer confidence. Why can't you accept that that was why Trump is a success where Obama failed.
