U.S. Economy Grows 3.3% in Second Quarter, Exceeding Forecasts

Ever get the feeling you’re being told the same old story? The big media companies love to push their tired, old script. They say America is broken. They say our best days are over. They want you to believe that the American Dream is dead.

And boy, do they get loud when a conservative is in charge. The so-called experts crawl out from whatever rock they hide under to predict nothing but doom. They talk about recessions and crashes. They claim that common sense and letting people keep their own money will ruin everything. And frankly, I have to ask: why does anyone still listen to these people?

Well, hold onto your hats. While they were busy being miserable, the American people were busy working. The latest numbers just came out, and they make all that negativity look ridiculous. The U.S. economy didn’t just grow. It shot past all the gloomy predictions, hitting a massive 3.3 percent growth rate.

This isn’t some number on a screen. It’s proof that real Americans are building a stronger country.

From ‘Breitbart News’:

The upward revision reflected households spending more on health care, pharmaceuticals and dining out, while companies boosted purchases of equipment and intellectual property. Business investment was driven by stronger outlays on software, research and development, light trucks, and commercial structures.

The American People, Not Pundits, Drive the Economy

Look at what is actually happening out there. This boom isn’t coming from government handouts. It’s coming from families and business owners. People are confident. They are buying things and starting projects. Businesses are spending money on new tools and better ideas. This is what real growth looks like.

This is just common sense, isn’t it? When you get government out of the way, good things happen. Business owners feel free to build and to hire. This isn’t a surprise. It’s exactly what happens when you put America First. You can’t measure that kind of spirit with a fancy computer model.

Proof That Less Government Means More Growth

But here’s my favorite part. It’s the one detail I guarantee you won’t see on CNN. While all this great private growth was happening, the report says that “Government spending was revised lower.” Think about that. The economy is getting stronger as the government is learning to tighten its belt.

We’ve been told for years that only big government spending can create jobs. That’s just not true. This report proves it. The true power of our economy is you. It’s the American worker. It’s the small business owner. When Washington steps back, you step up. You create the jobs. You build the prosperity.

The facts are clear. Our economy is roaring back, and prices are stable. This isn’t an accident. It’s what happens when we stick to the values of freedom and fiscal responsibility. The experts got it wrong. The media got it wrong. But the American people are getting it right.

Key Takeaways

• America’s economy is surging past all expert predictions.
• Growth is driven by confident families and businesses, not government.
• Conservative policies of fiscal restraint are proving successful.
• The media’s negative narrative is being proven false by reality.
