AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
The United States economy grew more than expected over the summer, shattering expectations and marking a two-year high of economic growth.
The long-anticipated third-quarter GDP numbers — whose autumn release was delayed due to the government shutdown — dropped Tuesday, an early Christmas gift to President Donald Trump and his administration.
"Q3 GDP came in at 4.3%, BLOWING PAST expectations," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Economists got it WRONG, but "TRUMP," and some other Geniuses, got it right."
