Economy continues to be turbo-charged

The Trump economy is going full speed ahead and hitting milestones few predicted could be achieved. In the first three months of this year, the U.S. economy grew at 3.2 percent annual rate, exceeding expectations.

Since the last quarter of 2018, which saw a 2.2 percent gain, there has been excellent progress.

One of the factors at play is the stock market, which has rebounded after falling in late 2018. The roaring economy is also so far adding almost 200,000 jobs in each month of 2019.

The economic good news has many experts retracting their warnings of recession they had in store for 2019.

All of this is good news. A strong economy and record low unemployment means more Americans from every walk of life get a chance to realize the American dream. We are enjoying historic prosperity in this country.

It will shock almost nobody that President Trump has tweeted on the matter:

“Just out: Real GDP for First Quarter grew 3.2% at an annual rate. This is far above expectations or projections. Importantly, inflation VERY LOW. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

At the very least, we are enjoying a great economy.

I've been able to find that line,

The economic good news has many experts retracting their warnings of recession they had in store for 2019.

But nothing about the experts retracting anything, or who they supposedly are.

Do you have any further info, or do we just have to rely on Trump tweets?

I hope it's true, we have our own economic issues on the way given the current government's trajectory, we couldn't handle that AND pain from the US.

I saw the link, it doesn't mention who any of the "many experts" are.

There is no citation other than a Trump tweet.

That's the question I had.

I could blog "Many experts agree that the economy is strong despite Trump's foolish actions, bad policy, dangerous rhetoric and pointless trade wars".

You'd dispute the claim and if you cared about the truth you'd want to get to the bottom of who said it.

For all we know, the claim you've quoted is as made up as my example above (that "many experts" have said that).

US Unemployment Rate Falls to 3.6% – a 50 Year Low! 263,000 New Jobs In April – Trump Economy Is ON FIRE!

2018 Was Year of the Worker Thanks to President Trump and 2019 is continuing with perhaps the best economy in US history.

Job numbers released today through the end of April show an increase of another 263,000 jobs – much more than expected!

According to data released yesterday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, President Trump has added more than 5.5 million jobs in President Trump’s term.

Jobs Surge in April, Unemployment Rate Falls to the Lowest Since 1969

“The U.S. jobs machine kept humming along in April, adding a robust 263,000 new hires while the unemployment rate fell to 3.6%, the lowest in a generation, according to a Labor Department report Friday,”

Jeff Cox reports in CNBC. The American economy “easily beat Wall Street expectations of 190,000 and a 3.8% jobless rate.”

The unemployment rate fell to 3.6% vs. 3.8% expected and the lowest since December 1969.

Average hourly earnings growth held at 3.2% over the past year bringing the average to $27.77.

“President Donald Trump hits a new high on his economic approval ratings in a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS, reaching 56% of Americans saying he's doing a good job on the economy,” Grace Sparks reports for CNN. “At the same time, Trump's favorability rating has hit its highest point since the 100-day mark of his presidency.”
