A stronger-than-expected U.S. economic report on Friday came at a good time for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, although Republican contender Donald Trump's campaign blasted the numbers as "dismal."

The Commerce Department reported that the economy grew at a 2.9 percent annual rate in the third quarter, its fastest pace in two years and higher than the expected 2.6 percent, thanks to a surge in exports and a rebound in investment.

With just 11 days to go before the Nov. 8 election, the report bolstered Clinton, who has positioned herself as the best candidate to continue years of economic expansion under President Barack Obama.

More Americans say jobs and the economy are their No.1 priority when they decide who to vote for than any other issue.

Nonetheless, Trump's message is that we should adopt the economic policies of Kansas.

2. The Media has been reporting only the down side items of

our Nations GDP and Business Growth for 7 plus years. Scary as hell when the truth gets reported.

4. Fox News Sets The Narrative and The Rest of The Media Plays Along

Look at CNN and it is typically dominated at night with free air time for Trump.

3. The only thing that's "dismal" is the job he's doing as a campaigner.

The bloated Cheeto has added a new word to his vocabulary, I see. He's now up to a third grade level.

6. 2008 showed us how republicans handle the economy

2008 showed us how republicans handle the economy as Bush left the economy in ruins.

We now have businessman Trump who lost almost a billion dollars in one year bragging how well he will improve the economy?

That's on heck of a confidence builder.
