If you only read mainstream media headlines, you’d be inclined to believe that we are in a full-blown economic depression. Story after story says that only the wealthy have seen any tax relief. They’re saying that employment is impossible to find, interest rates and inflation are wildly out of control, and the GDP has completely crashed. The two months of stock market corrections under Trump are a clear indication that the apocalypse is now, and they predicted it all along.
In reality, the American economy is in the best shape we’ve seen since the 90s. And, it’s improving quickly. The stock market correction looks like a scary graph, but even while equity is stabilizing, dividends continue to break records. Trump spent a year building an economic foundation that could withstand a little turbulence before he fully attacked foreign trade issues, and as a result, we’re now set to weather the minimal ups and downs that will inevitably accompany these negotiations. Tariff negotiations with China aren’t going to cripple the GDP or eliminate job growth. The average American won’t notice any change at all.
The positives of Trump’s economy are so obvious and inescapable that even many of Trump’s worst critics are praising his success. This video is proof. For reference, the man you are about to watch is a long-term Clinton supporter and deep within their inner circle. What does he think about Trump’s economy?
