This is an "ad populum" fallacy (this many people agree with me therefore I must be right) combined with an "ad vericundium" fallacy (these important people agree with me, therefore I must be right). None of it actually establishes that your argument is right. Just that they don't like Trump...and he was elected to BREAK the establishment...OF COURSE they don't like him.
Duh. trump was in office about a year when the article was written. Not that it makes a difference. The economy didn't meet trump's target and it was slower than in 2015 under Obama.
The U.S. economy gained momentum in 2017, but growth slowed at the end of the year.
The economy grew 2.3% for the year, the Commerce Department said Friday. That's well ahead of the 1.5% growth in 2016, but slower than 2015. It's also below the 3% target President Trump has set for his first term.
Surely even a dummy like you understands that opinions are not necessarily the views of the publication.The Hill is now suddenly conservative?

I didn't "smear the source" moron, I questioned the credentials of the people who presented their opinions. Hope that's not too hard for you to understand.And how exactly are the facts presented in this article refuted by your off-topic "smear the source" fallacy?
Now that's rich, coming from a RWNJ who supports every single conspiracy the Manchurian Cantaloupe tweets about.Not joining the rest of the media in humiliating and discrediting themselves with biased lunatic conspiracy theories, self-contradicting partisan hysteria, and blatantly false narratives (aka 'practicing journalism') is now "whitewashing and normalizing" the already normal and non-controversial? Nice logic.
"Democrats trash trump's policies", "Democrats issue hysterical alarms", "Democrats are terrified that the tax cuts will be a pleasant surprise", "they are even more terrified of bonuses and raises being handed out", blah blah blah. Obviously this factual and serious information was written by the likes of Greenspan, Bernanke, Yellen and Powell.When do we get to the part where you refute anything that has been presented in the article? Or did you think no one would notice that all of these off-topic fallacies were just diversionary attempts to avoid the debate?
It's interesting to see how a supposedly normal brain has shrunk after being laundered, rinsed and fluff-dried in the RW trump spin machine, ludicrous liar.Try again, dishonest demagogue.

“What greater gift than the love of a cat.”
― Charles Dickens
He did not get 9. the guidelines and 6 to 9. The worst-case was 9. it was not going to happen. Stone merely lied to congress 5 times. He obstructed justice and he threatened a witness. Mccabe and Comey did no such thing. you are lying about it again.
When was he sentenced to 9 years. I missed that.
This orginization is a Left leaning orginization. So its no big surprise they signed a stupid letter. It means nothing.
Right. His first year in office. As in, when he first took office. Congratulations. You finally correctly comprehended a basic fact.
Even if you still struggle to grasp that these two can be synonyms.
Off to a great start, brainiac.
Note the left's hilarious desperation as they frantically try to scrounge up anything they can find to deny the unmistakable reality that Trump's policies are working where Obama's failed:
"Trump's economy may be breaking record after record, but...but...he hoped it would go even further in a shorter time, so that makes him a failure and Obama a success. Ha ha."
"But...but one of Trump's years of record breaking economic prosperity looked kind of like one of Obama's years, so that makes Trump a failure and Obama a success." Ha ha.
What a comically inept imbecile
Surely even a dummy like you understands the difference between falsely claiming that a publication is conservative to avoid the debate (what you did) and this new subject change of pretending that one conservative column being included in a publication with a bunch of liberal ones somehow proves that the publication IS conservative. Let alone your OTHER subject change of suddenly pretending that all facts presented in columns are automatically invalid (your utterly discredited sources are NOTHING BUT opinion, but just refuse to stop labeling themselves as legitimate news).
So THIS is what you've got? Hilariously desperate grasping at statistical straws and obvious, impotent diversionary fallacies?
Imagine what you could accomplish if you poured all this energy into actually debating the argument presented instead of this unending dishonest clown show of spin and avoidance.
Unless you count changing the subject to an absurd attack on the source in which you tried to paint The Hill (of all things) as a "conservative, Trump supporting paper" that "hand-picks" only economists who reinforce the "opinion" that Trump removing taxes and regulations on job-creators caused the boom in job creation (kind of obvious) rather than Obama doubling and tripling everyone's health care costs.
You PROVABLY DID smear the source (it's right there for everyone to see) to avoid the fact that your argument literally makes no sense on its face. Anything else you'd like to lie about, or are you good for now?
Conspiracy theorists are more like your "journalists" who continuously fall for fearmongering scams like:
-the Russia collusion hoax,
-the "Investigating Biden's corruption is worse than Biden BEING corrupt" hoax,
-the Covington Catholic hoax,
-the Roy Moore pedophile hoax,
-the Kavanaugh rape gang hoax,
-the "repealing Net Neutrality will destroy the Internet" hoax,
-the Jussie Smollett hoax,
-the Charlottesville "very fine people" hoax,
-the Duke Lacrosse team hoax,
-the fake Ukraine transcript hoax,
-the Trayvon Martin hoax,
-the "Trump admitted to sexual assault" hoax,
-the "penises cause climate change" hoax,
-the "uninsured crisis" hoax,
-the "Trump denying passports to Latinos" hoax,
-the multitude of college hate crime hoaxes,
-the "Mission Accomplished" hoax,
-the "deceptively edited video" Planned Parenthood hoax,
-the "children in cages" hoax,
-the Michael Cohen perjury/contacting the Russians hoaxes,
-the SPLC "hate group" hoax,
-the "Trump mocking people with disabilities" hoax,
-the "you can keep your doctor" hoax,
-the "immigrants are rapists, criminals, animals" hoax,
-the Kavanaugh "white power symbol" hoax,
-the "Trump asked Putin to hack the DNC" hoax,
-the polar bear dying from climate change hoax,
-the "Trump made it easier for the mentally ill to purchase guns" hoax,
-the Scaramucci Russian bankers hoax,
-the "Muslim ban" hoax,
-the global warming "consensus" hoax,
-the "Obama's scandal-free presidency" hoax,
-the Trump Jr. WikiLeaks hoax,
-the Iran nuclear appeasement hoax,
-the "polls show Trump will lose" hoax,
-the "Obamacare will never fund abortions or illegal immigrants" hoax,
-the "Hillary exonerated" hoax,
-the "white privilege" hoax,
-the voter suppression hoax,
-and the "hands up don't shoot" hoax.
Try to keep up.
The only economists who can be right or whose degrees qualify them to discuss economics in public are...
FEDERAL RESERVE BANKERS?
They do have more experience destroying our economy than anyone.
Lame. Diversionary fallacy. Maybe your NEXT distraction will work.
Says the guy getting caught peddling garbage excuses, conspiracy theories, and fake propaganda at every turn.
What else you got?
