EconomyHow is the US economy really performing under Trump?

Ahead of the midterms, Donald Trump has praised the economy, claiming incomes are up, inflation is down and jobs have been created.

Manufacturing employment has edged down, while the federal deficit, Treasury yields and mortgage rates remain high.
