Answer honestly. If a Democrat said "we're gonna hit 3%" at their campaign rallies, and then hit 2.9% in their 2nd year, would the John Harwoods of the world be using language like "crashed into reality"?

Trump promised 4.5 and repeatedly said Obama was an economic failure for not achieving 3%

No. But Trump never said "hit 3%". He claimed "4, 5, 6 percent". And I believe the success of the tax cuts depended on hitting 4% minimum in 2018.

The irony is that if Trump was only a little less aggressive on the tariffs then we would have easily hit 3%. I think damping down this year will be good in the long run as overjuicing this year would have left things flat going forward, it wasn't by intention.
