GREAT AGAIN: US Regains TOP SPOT as World’s Most Competitive Economy

posted by Hannity Staff - 8.03.18

The United States “dethroned” Hong Kong this week to take the top spot as the World’s most competitive economy; further signaling a robust US recovery under President Trump and the recently passed GOP tax cuts.

“The U.S. dethroned Hong Kong to retake first place among the world’s most competitive economies, thanks to faster economic growth and a supportive atmosphere for scientific and technological innovation, according to annual rankings by the Switzerland-based IMD World Competitiveness Center,” writes the new report.

“The U.S., which reclaimed the No. 1 spot for the first time since 2015, scored especially well in international investment, domestic economy and scientific infrastructure sub-categories while earning below-average marks in public finance and prices,” adds the author.

GREAT AGAIN: April Tax Revenue Was BEST IN US HISTORY According to CBO

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.08.18

The Congressional Budget Office released new figures Tuesday showing the federal government took in a record-breaking tax haul in April; smashing previous budget estimates and signaling a growing US economy.

The CBO report shows the United States collected over $515 billion last month; spending just $297 billion and leaving a total monthly surplus of nearly $220 billion; smashing the previous record of $190 billion set in 2001.

“Those payments were mostly related to economic activity in 2017 and may reflect stronger-than-expected income growth in that year,” said one analyst. “Part of the strength in receipts also may reflect larger-than-anticipated payments for economic activity in 2018. The reasons for the added revenues will be better understood as more detailed information becomes available later this year.”

The staggering surplus comes on the heels of record low unemployment and jobless benefits; highlighting a roaring US economy just months after President Trump signed the sweeping tax overhaul into law.

GREAT AGAIN: Dow SOARS 31% Under TRUMP, Best Year Since GREAT DEPRESSION

posted by Hannity Staff - 1.19.18

As Democrats and Republicans scramble to reach a last-minute agreement to avert a federal government shutdown, the stock market continues to smash records under President Trump; soaring 31% in his first year in office and posting the greatest gains since President Franklin Roosevelt.

According to CNBC, the Dow has surged over 31% since President Trump’s inauguration in January 2017, marking the largest increase since Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s first year in office which saw the Dow “skyrocket” by 96.5% following the Great Depression.

“This is all about policy,” said a chief investment strategist at Baird. “You’ve got lower taxes, less regulation and confidence in the economy is high. Things are firing on all cylinders.”

President Trump rode a wave of economic promises and policies into the Oval Office throughout the 2016 presidential race; vowing to put “America First” and unleash “the power of the American worker.”

Trump touted the economic gains throughout the country at a rally in Pennsylvania Thursday, saying the US is “coming back bigger and better.”

“We are coming back bigger and better and stronger than ever,” said the President. “At the center of America’s resurgence are the massive tax cuts that I just signed into law.”
