LOL. Been telling lefties just this for a while now. They are simply intransigent because America voted for Trump.

For many people, the economy is, at this very moment, stronger than it has been at any other point in their life. The unemployment rate is hovering near its lowest point in 50 years, showing that nearly everyone who wants a job already has one. Wages are up, and quarterly economic growth has proven strong.

In that context, it’s astonishing to see many Democratic presidential candidates attacking policies that led to our current success.

It almost seems like these candidates are ignoring basic reality. Sure, they’re vying for the party’s nomination, but that doesn’t mean they have to ignore President Trump’s incredible economic accomplishments.

I could hardly control my laughter during the debates when Senators Cory Booker and Elizabeth Warren both said that this economy is hurting small businesses. As a small business owner, I know free-market policies are working not just for me but for everyone.

America’s GDP has been growing in excess of an annual 3%, surpassing the expectations of many economists. Report after report from the Labor Department shows that joblessness claims are down, with the latest report revealing claims fell even more than expected. Overall, it’s a great time to start or work for a small business.

Hiring is up and wages are increasing. In fact, the fastest wage growth is being experienced not by the "top 1%,” but by the bottom 20% of wage-earners. That's yet another fact disproving the left-wing narrative that the roaring economy is only benefiting those at the top.

As the moderators pointed out at the first Democratic debate, more than 70% the public, including a majority of Democrats, believe the economy is doing great.

A great deal of this revitalized economy is thanks to the sweeping tax cuts that President Trump signed into law in 2017. Because of that tax relief, my business was able to keep and reinvest more of the money it earned. Thanks to that extra financial support, I was able to hire more employees, raise my team’s pay and increase production. We even expanded our product line.
