Using a reputable source like "The Economist" and not right wing news? How dare you!

The Economist predicted Trump would never be elected and that he was a flash in the pan.

Sgt Gus Laskaris - With all due respect, to disregard all aspects of Keynesian economics is wrong, we, as a society, should learn to accept the good aspects of a model (be it economic, political...) while rejecting the less desirable parts. Virtually all media sources have a bias, I just like to think the Economist (which I do subscribe to) tends to back up its stories on facts which can be checked, unlike some of the more conservative sites (Breitbart comes to mind). The Economist is also British, which means it is influenced less by American politics and money.
Trump may well create an explosion of jobs, I worry about the quality and income of said jobs. He's well known for his anti-union stance, and his choice for Secretary of Labor reinforces that. We do not need a nation of mostly minimum wage earning citizens, IMHO

I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I know some can't wait and have begun criticizing before his Administration begins, but that's just how some people roll, isn't it?

Being that the Economist is historically a conservative magazine, I was a bit leery of the article in full context. In priciple, I can see that side per se and as you noted, we will not know until his term is over. Lets wait and see
