NPR Says the Economy Is Doing Well: This Is What Affordability Looks Like

The economy is doing great. President Trump announced the news, but the real shocker is that NPR said it’s positive. The U.S. economy grew faster in the summer compared to the spring, driven by consumer spending.

NPR writes:

“Gross domestic product, which broadly measures economic activity, grew at an annual rate of 3.4% July through September, according to a report from the Commerce Department released Thursday. The previous quarter GDP grew at a 2.2% annual pace. A big driver for GDP growth in the third quarter was the strong investments from AI companies, which continue to build out data centers and spend big money in developing the technology.

“With days to go before the midterms, data shows the U.S. economy is doing well.”

President Trump credits tax relief, deregulation, and renewed private-sector investment in 2025 with moderated inflation and accelerated job creation. President Trump is putting the workers first.

The job numbers are great.

🚨 JUST IN: White House takes HUGE victory lap on the “experts” who did NOT expect President Trump’s economy to triple jobs numbers

“There’s SO much momentum because of the positive policies!”

“Job markets are booming.” 🔥

The tariffs have worked in bringing the deficit down to the lowest it has been in decades.

🚨 BREAKING – the White House confirmed it: “The deficit relative to last year is down by $600 BILLION dollars!” 🔥

“We’ve got a BIG government SURPLUS running for a few months in a row.”

“Since July, we’ve had a LOT of positive news about the economy. A couple quarters of almost 4% growth.”

Now, a tariff rebate check could be on the way. Congress must pass it.

This will be HUGE! 🇺🇸
