An Economic Prediction

From Green Eagle:

Donald Trump: “We’re on track to hit the highest annual average growth rate in over 13 years and I will say this right now, and I’ll say it strongly.”

A lie, of course, from the man who has told thousands of them in the last two years.. NBC news has this reply:

“President Barack Obama, whose first election coincided with a debilitating economic collapse, had four quarters of higher growth than this during his presidency. It would tie for the fifth strongest quarter under President George W. Bush and the 13th strongest quarter under President Bill Clinton.”

If you go online, you find various accounts, for some reason, of what the quarterly growth rate has been the last decade.
