Mulvaney Slams Liberals Who Doubt U.S. Can Achieve 3 Percent Economic Growth (The Washington Free Beacon)

Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney on Tuesday castigated liberals who doubt the United States can achieve "sustained" three percent economic growth.

Mulvaney was discussing the Trump administration's first proposed budget during a press conference at the White House when he took on claims that the administration's goal of three percent growth is too ambitious.

Mulvaney said the proposed federal budget would balance, slamming the Obama administration's budgets for never being able to do so as he discussed fiscal discipline and the objective to reach sustained three percent economic growth.
