There's a short video inside the linked article.

I'm telling you, boys, this is where Trump is going to shine the brightest. Trump knows business, jobs, and the economy. Listen to him talk about the sectors leading the way. We aren't talking about $10-12/hr. "you want fries with that?" McJobs.

This is what's going to eventually shut the left up.

Well let's hope so, but smoking seems a little hyperbolic at this point in time.

If the Atlanta Fed's prediction for Q2 turns out accurate (and especially if it's even higher), then smoking may be a good descriptor.

This is why the left wants to bring him down more than anything else. They want Venezuela here, and Trump wants to MAGA

I agree with you that it's early, but at least I'm not the only one saying it.

This guy is pretty good, btw. it's his OPINION, but he's very credible.

The guy from Snap-On was laying it down.

It is about time that this country realized that demonizing working with your hands was ignorant. A 30k per year job with 100k in student debt. Who would have thought that was bad economics. Erryone needs to go to college so you can be proper dipshits

ETA: CVP is a good follow on twitter if you do twitter.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, I do Twitter. I'd give my handle, but some of my "anti-fans" here are somewhat ANTIFA-like.

This is why the left is so eager to get him out as fast as possible. He wins the next term if the economy is booming for the first time in a long time.

It could, but if the swamp is as deep as I think it is, it may be difficult to see this economy reaching it's full potential under Trump's economic plan.

If the Wall Street/Bankers (which many are Globalist Progs) want to derail the economy they have that power and the pisser is they really don't lose because they can minimize their exposure to the economic downturn.

Sounds crazy I know but don't discount anything these sonsabitches would do to oust Trump, just tinker with the script a little and these thieves can make it happen. Hell even Obammy's taking $400k a pop speeches from Wall Street so keep an eye on this scenario, they love them some Progs on Wall Street.

Cutting the corporate tax rate down to 15 percent is the main reason I voted for Trump. It's a game changer. Don't give a damn what else he does as long as this gets passed.

I keep coming back to Ronald Reagan, because I remember it. His first three years were culture wars and the media tearing him apart, then the economy took off and he was untouchable.

Interesting; I think he's great.
Then again, Hannity makes my skin crawl, but people like him.
Different strokes, I guess.

Giving him full credit for the economy before he's even been in office for a year demonstrates a lack of understanding in how the economy works.

I think he is good in discussion, but terrible when he has to read from the prompter. He is obviously pretty smart and can hold a conversation well, but when he has to go on script it hurts to watch.

I think Hannity is gawbage.

Hussein didn't break 3 percent GDP growth in any quarter in eight years.

Just as soon as he leaves office, things change...

I gotcha.
I don't get that vibe, that's all.
Payne is definitely a different personality, so I'm sure others share your opinion.
He's one of my favorites, regardless of format.

Clearly Hannity is the great equalizer where you and I are concerned.
