During his presidential campaign, then-candidate Donald Trump promised to deliver a strong economy for the American people, and as President, he has more than made good on his promise – and he still has not even been in office for 365 days.
There are five economic indicators that show the economy is incredibly strong right now under the Trump administration: The booming stock market, job creation beating expectations, a low number of layoffs, manufacturing industry growing rapidly, and dozens of major companies responding positively to the GOP tax reform bill.
