The GOP's Deficit Explosion and Its Real Economic Impact

It's indeed disheartening when you see someone so entrenched in ideological propaganda, rhetoric, and outright lies that they neglect to do their homework and research an issue thoroughly. The persistent claim that 'Trump is destroying the economy,' fueled by 'Progressive' Democrats, is a prime example of this. However, the numbers are now officially in, revealing the truth. Yet, tragically, few liberals outside of those in office have heard the truth because, as expected, the 'Progressive' propaganda machine, which we mockingly refer to as the media in this country, buried the story.

The 2018 Census Bureau Report on U.S. Economics

On September 10, 2019, the Census Bureau issued their Data Report for 2018Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2018. This official government report, not some media spin, shows that every single economic metric, except one, saw substantial and significant improvement over the previous year. This information is crucial and should have garnered widespread media coverage, but it didn't. This lack of coverage doesn't align with the 'Progressive' narrative and reflects an agenda that would happily watch America burn as long as Trump's culpability is highlighted.

Key Economic Improvements

Firstly, the number of people and families in or below the poverty level hit the lowest in 15 years. Simultaneously, the number of individuals in poverty decreased. Although the number of billionaires increased slightly, it was nowhere close to the rate at which people were exiting poverty. This starkly contradicts the narrative that Trump's economy only benefits the wealthy.

The only metric to decline was the number of uninsured individuals. This decrease was due to two main factors:

Fewer People in Poverty: With fewer people in poverty, there were fewer individuals eligible for Medicaid and Medicare, which significantly contributed to the insured metric. Voluntary Coverage Drop: When Trump eliminated the individual mandate, millions of people voluntarily discontinued coverage they were previously required to buy but didn't want or couldn't use.

The Media's Role in Concealing the Truth

The silence from the media on this report is baffling and counterproductive. Coverage of this report and its implications would have debunked the false narratives peddled by 'Progressive' Democrats and provided a realistic assessment of the economic situation under the Trump administration. Instead, the narrative persists, fueled by propaganda that serves an agenda beyond truth.

It's clear that the media's focus on the wrong issues serves a political, rather than a journalistic, agenda. In an era where media credibility is critically important, such selective reporting undermines the public's ability to make informed decisions and understand the realities of our economic situation.

Conclusion

The truth is out, and it's time to dispel the lies and propaganda. The economic improvements under the Trump administration, as reported by the Census Bureau in 2018, are undeniable. The media's role in burying this report further erodes public trust. As we enter a new political era, it's more critical than ever to demand accurate and comprehensive reporting that serves the public interest, not partisan agendas.
