Consumer confidence has reached a 16 year high That's better
And not much of what Trump has done has taken effect yet, this is people betting on the future. The last two times presidents did a tax cut, the economy boomed, both under JFK and Reagan, more people worked.
You say nothing has changed, maybe you should step outside and look around. Here in LA if you want to do a remodel on your house, you have to wait a year for someone to have the time and most that are doing it don't seem to have a contractors license.

All of this has to do with Obama, and none of this has to do with Trump.
Obama came into office with a 10% plus unemployment rate and an economy in a tailspin. You sat here and argued about how bad the economy was, even when unemployment hit 4%.
Nothing changed. Trump did nothing. All of the numbers you quoted have been heading in the right direction for the past eight years. Trump had nothing to do with any of thing. It's stunning that Republicans suddenly think our economy is great and that Trump had anything to with it.
