Donald Trump is poised to enter the White House with booming markets and solid growth.

The long-term consequences of the highest inflation in four decades are still dragging down consumer sentiment.

With the election over, he’s likely to have a much easier job convincing Americans that times are actually pretty good.

The fight on Capitol Hill over the tax code will provide Trump with a chance to make a case for tax cuts.

Blaming the current administration for any economic headwinds that Trump encounters over the course of his second term will only go so far.

Favorable economic forecasts, stronger growth and declining inflation won't matter if voters don't feel secure about their finances or economic prospects.
