Donald Trump brags and lies a lot. But his supporters seem to believe everything he says.
His main bragging point is the economy and employment, which has increased by 5.6 million in his first 29 months — similar to the growth in working-age population. In Barack Obama's last 29 months, employment grew by 6.4 million without raping the environment.
Trump’s trumpeted tax cuts resulted in large after-tax windfalls for the rich (including Trump) but, allowing for inflation, were negative for many of the poorest 40%. But the deficit was 40% larger in his first two years than in Obama's last two — and continues to increase.
