> “The greatest economy the world has ever known”

“ At Wednesday’s White House Cabinet meeting, Kelly Loeffler, who leads the Small Business Administration, appeared eager to toe the party line on the state of the economy.

“Mr. President, you have made us a nation of builders again,” the former Republican senator said. “You’re leading us to the greatest economy that the world has ever known.”

The rhetoric was absurd but familiar. Donald Trump and his allies, on a nearly daily basis, tell the public the current American economy is the “greatest” ever. During one of JD Vance’s recent Fox News appearances, the vice president celebrated the “Trump boom.” A week earlier, Peter Navarro, a leading White House voice on trade and economic policy, told Fox News that the U.S. economy was “perfect.”


Meanwhile back in reality, Q1 GNP growth was revised downward to 1.6%, far lower than Joe Biden’s worst number of 2.8%.
