We have a GDP report today that growth was 3.5%, but that\u2019s below what was expected! So the Drive-Bys are reporting that economic activity has slowed down! It\u2019s not nearly what people thought it would be! Trying to create that first impression among the people in their audiences that there\u2019s something wrong with the economy. There\u2019s nothing wrong with 3.5% growth!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-290070\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Trump-Economy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Trump-Economy.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-102618-Trump-Economy-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t come in at the predicted 3.8% to 4%. Guess what? The tech stock sector is taking a bath, specifically Google (also known as Alphabet) and Amazon have reported earnings, and every&#8230; They\u2019re stunningly disappointing, and it\u2019s causing sell-off. It\u2019s causing a big problem on the NASDAQ, which is where many of the tech stocks report, where they\u2019re listed.<\/p>\n<p>And so the same thing is happening now and with intensity because we are now at a period of time we\u2019re less than two weeks before the midterm elections, and what better time for the Drive-Bys to report that the economy is slowing down, even though it\u2019s chugging right along. Jobs are still being created, everything\u2019s fine, 3.5% growth. Nobody ever saw that in the last eight years of Barack Obama. We didn\u2019t see that much before Obama.<\/p>\n<p>We didn\u2019t see it very often. This economy\u2019s still chugging right along, but the Drive-Bys are reporting today that it has slowed down, there could be trouble on the horizon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: There&#039;s nothing wrong with 3.5% growth! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":290070,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
