GDP for the 2nd Q was 2.6%. Understand that GDP is the measure of how many dollars change hands (income and expenses) in a single month compared to the previous month. The 2nd quarter did 2.6% more business than the first quarter.
Now, before we Trumpsters get too excited, understand that Obama had many quarters of 2.6%, and many were 2nd quarter expansions. Still, Barack's GDP average for each of his eight years was 1.8%, near recessionary levels.
This 2nd quarter report, as it stands alone, is not an indication that Trump's first six months has changed the direction of this nation, financially speaking.
