(KFTK) – Joel Griffith, a Heritage Foundation Research Fellow on Financial Regulations joined Randy Tobler.
"Overall the tax cuts have been a big plus for the US economy," says Griffith "now I understand some were predicting that this would spark 4 or 5 percent economic growth, we haven't seen that."
Griffith says the picture is not all rosy under Trump, "the trade dispute that we've had, not just with China, but also with some of our long-term trade partners such as Mexico and Canada, that has impacted consumers in a negative way."
"Contrast the negatives from the trade disputes with the positives of the tax cuts and regulatory reform we still see a net economic benefit," says Griffith, "but it could have been better."
