There is nobody more sunny and optimistic than a politician writing a budget, and Donald Trump is no different.
His budget promises a golden age of new jobs and progress, with tax cuts and a border wall to boot. To make all this possible, it assumes one thing: that the economy will grow at 3% every year. This is very hard. Other countries do it all the time, but the United States hasn't consistently seen that kind of growth in decades.
On today's show, we come up with a plan to get there, but Donald Trump might not like it.
