    this disconnect also discredits the CPI report that was released 5 days ago.

    Interesting.. why the increase before ACA premiums expire?

    Regardless, tariffs haven't had anywhere close to the impact the naysayers thought they would. I ordered inventory last month and there was hardly a 1 or 2% difference from the previous year. I was preparing for 10% and my jaw dropped. Treasury Sec Bessent might have some statues built after him if he comes through with his promise of spending power to main street next year.

    the data was gathered by Trump's Commerce Dept, its BEA,
    as a result of the many criticisms directed at his ill-conceived tariffs, since April,

    all these TACO / back-pedalling moves amount to an admission, by Trump 2.0, that
    his tariffs critics were right​

    USA vs Canada. A reminder that liberal economic policies simply do not work.




    GOOD DAY

    unable to defend / rationalize Trump 2.0's contradictory / conflicting US economic data for Q3,
    • CPI data says inflation did not increase in Q3 2025
    • GDP data says inflation continues to eat at American's wages
      • while the reported GDP showed 4% growth,
        • disposable income was flat,
    traitor George resorts to flashing another shinny object

    No wonder, this is still the case, some 10-11 months after the 79 yr-old convicted felon took office in Jan 2025

    Too bad it's not swaying the american people. Trumps polling is in the toilet, and people are not confident at all in the direction of the economy.

    Here in middle Tennessee. There's some gas stations hitting around two dollars per gallon. I can't remember in many many years when that has happened- the tax advantages are going to start hitting no taxes no tips - people are spending money. People are shopping. A lot of indicators are going up so this is all good news and liberals are not happy Because to them, it's all about their side and not the USA doing well

    According to this NY-based economic researcher, the Q3 GDP report is a fugazi if there ever was one.

    • while GDP growth was reported to be ~4.3%,
      • personal disposable income growth was flat, corroborating the fact that
        • inflation continues to be eating at Americans' wages
