Lol. Did Sleepy take over White House's Twitter account?
That tweet and his posts here, share similar (but also delusional) arguments
Is it really such a big deal to grow faster than a developing country?
That said, if you travelled back to 20 years ago and told the average Chinese that the White House bragged about faster economical growth than China in the future, they’d laugh at you.

Mamamia. how on earth did this administration come to this point and I thought they would be more sane them Trump. Turns out having oldies in charge for so long has dangerous consequences, which almost anyone with a brain should already have known by now unless they have been dropped on their head at birth
china lives rent free in their minds.
I don't know what measure they're using for this post, especially given the financial year isn't over.
The highest I can see is 5.7%, which is lower than China's 8.1%
Lets be real. The only reason America's GDP growth rate is anywhere close to China's is because its entire economy was shuttered for months in 2020, giving an unusally low base rate. It has nothing to do with "rebuilding manufacturing" or anything else in that post. We'll see what the GDP growth rate will be in 2022.
Maybe that's the future for western countries. Close down your economy every other year then reopen it the next. That way you get to beat China every two years...
Both political parties operate on the presumption of American supremacy and primacy and that's their guiding principle first and foremost. None of these parties will deviate or even close to telling their people to adjust to a future where they're number 2 economically because doing so would be political suicide since Americans have been told from birth that America is God's country.
You had Obama who promised Hope and Change and what did they get exactly? Obama care? Trump presidency?
Nah, if they want to do that it's got to be a 4 years off, 1 year on thing. 1 year off/1 year on won't do it.
