🚨 Kudlow: “This is a BOOM” @larry_kudlow: “The Atlanta Fed is saying the economy is growing at over 5% in real terms.” “Retail sales are growing at 6%. Business investment, machinery, equipment, data centers — over 20%.” “Productivity… is now growing the last two years, 3% annually. We haven’t had that since the Reagan ’80s.”

Remember when Larry told us that if the 2017 GOP tax cut passed, we'd see 3 percent growth as far as the eye could see? That was 1st-term Trump. He did't even get one year of that.

How F'ing insane do you have to be to watch this Fox News Goyslop and think the US economy is great. Laura used to be a good host, now she is just spitting Israel First and Neocon BS.

Can you imagine if we had a Congress that actually worked with Trump instead of against him, and a Fed that didn’t just raise rates in a blatantly political move?

FOX’S FAKE “BOOM” Kudlow is manufacturing a boom from deliberately mismatched statistics. The 5.1% figure is a GDPNow model estimate for one quarter. The Atlanta Fed explicitly states that it is neither official data nor an official forecast. Actual GDP growth was only 1.5% in the second quarter. Retail sales increased 6%, but that figure is nominal and not adjusted for inflation. Presenting it as real economic growth is dishonest. The 20% investment claim cherry picks machinery and data center spending. Overall investment growth decelerated, while private domestic final sales increased 4.2%. Productivity is currently growing 2.2% annually, not 3%. The longer cycle rate is 2.1%, exactly equal to the historical average. Real hourly compensation fell 3.3%, while labor’s share of income reached its lowest level since records began in 1947. Even Fox’s own poll shows 62% struggling with grocery prices, 61% with gasoline and 52% with healthcare costs. Kudlow used an unofficial forecast, an inflation inflated sales figure and selected investment categories to fabricate a boom while American households are being crushed. Fox is broadcasting financial deception for viewers it assumes cannot read.

There's a disconnect then. I don't think anyone I know feels like we're in a Boom. I certainly don't. Groceries and gas are expensive and we're not spending as much on retail items than we have in the past. Expenses are going up much more than our incomes are.

Sure. Team Trump and their meida surrogates have reached Bidenesque levels of denial.

Just think what we could do if the Globalist Fed would lower interest rates? We could grow GDP big time. 7-10%.

Economy is killing it thanks to Trump's luring foreign investment into America. Media lies and it makes me sick.

Yes, but the key is to challenge the Dems to explain what they would do to achieve "affordability."

But the debt is growing drastically faster, and inflation is growing drastically faster, all thanks to your service and obedience to Israel. Way to fucking go. Trump could have fulfilled his promise to the American people, but he chose to fulfill his promises to a foreign state.

And yet everything is more expensive. People can't afford to buy homes. Gas is back to Biden prices. Maybe things are sweet for the wealthy but for everyday working folk, it's not sweet.

This is so important to know. Our economy is strong and from all intelligent predictions, the next 18 months will be phenomenal. Takes a while to turn around a battleship.
