You thank him

I will thank Trump

The CBO has issued two budget and economic reports after President Trump took office in January 2017.* In CBO’s June 2017 “Updated to the Budget and Economic Outlook”, page 19 reports that ten-year revenue estimates rose by $195 billion for “economic reasons”.** Then in CBO’s April 2018*“Budget and Economic Outlook”,*page 94 reports that ten-year revenue estimates rose by $1,088 billion for “economic reasons”.* This is the largest jump in revenues for economic reasons ever reported by CBO, and results from, in CBO’s words, their “current projections suggest[ing] a stronger economic outlook than those that the agency published in June 2017”.
