Yes, said misery and failure were the “new norm”, parroted by his lackeys in the media.

When was it....1984....when it’d been at least that high? Imagine 2019 going the same way?

Didn’t this same Fed group that said Quarter 1 was going to be 5%? Off by more than half.

The Atlanta Fed's GDPNow tool forecasts GDP growth at a specific point in time based on economic conditions on that date. The forecast changes weekly, sometimes daily, as new information comes in. The forecast could be lower on Friday or it could be higher.

No, they did and then lowered significantly a couple weeks later.

Yep. The Reagan years.

Elections have consequences.
