re: LIBERAL MEDIA FLAT OUT LYING

Obama's GDP annual growth was less than 1.5 % his only quarter above 2 was 2.75 in 2010. He was a dismal failure and anyone that trust to defend him is a moron.

Either you are out of your element or you are being intentionally misleading with your data set (I'm assuming the latter because you suspiciously left out a link to your data).

I'll give you a chance to tell me what the problem is with the data set you used when attempting to answer that poster's question.

shite you didn't even have to do math to not fail this bad. All you had to do was read the data set posted on the last page.

Sorry to have to do this but nobody is listening.

2.6% IS the FIRST PRELIMINARY ESTIMATE. THE SECOND ESTIMATE WILL BE RELEASED ON OR ABOUT AUGUST 29, 2017, AND CAN (obviously) HIGHER OR LOWER.

There also can be additional estimates/revisions after August. Trump citing this number as an accomplished fact is mis-leading (at best).

It should also be noted that this 2.6% is actually lower then the Atlanta Fed projected for the second quarter initially(though the number will probably move slightly in the more sound August update). Where they initially forecasted over 4% growth for the second quarter.

Not that that doesn't happen. As is the general rule, the further out from the forecast the higher rate of volatility there tends to be.

But I bring it up because I remember Trumpkins getting particularly giddy over those projections(some mistaking them for actual GDP numbers).

EDIT: Including publications like Breit Bart that pushed the projection without really clarifying to their readers that it was a projection and how volatile a projection that far out can be(as evidenced by the above OP so easily mistaking the context of the Atlanta Fed's projection).

I counted 5 months out of 48 above 2.75. Yeah I really failed big time. The quarters I looked at don't even come close to what cuckeye posted. The point being that the economy under Obama sucked goat arse and it did.

So you admit that your original post claiming only one quarter in 2010 was above 2.75 is wrong?

Why do libs seem to want GDP numbers to not increase? Are libs so upset with losing an election that they don't want the country to have economic success?

I don't get it.

I guess we can just add this to the list of things you just don't get.

Most, if not all of the complaints, were not about the fact that the GDP estimate was higher, they were complaining about the inaccurate numbers that Trump was reporting during Obama.

And, don't you know? Fact checking Trump is the fastest growing sport in America.
