Economists: Trump tax plan offers almost nothing for the middle class

Here's what economists think of Trump's proposed economic plan

All you need to know about Trump's economic plan is that according to one of his surrogates, Newt Gingrich, no presidential candidate's economic numbers add up.

However, Hillary Clinton has actively supported Obama's economic plan, including his legacy building, mega-job killing Obamacare, which had led to economic growth rates south of 2 percent and the lowest job participation rate since the Carter administration. So which is worse, a terrible track record on creating jobs as part of a very corrupt administration, or an economic plan that exaggerates future growth rates?

I give the nod on the economy to Trump, only because Hillary Clinton has proven that she is no friend of capitalism. The only president in my lifetime who had a realistic economic plan and executed it when he took office was Ronald Reagan. I don't expect that Trump or Clinton will follow the Reagan blueprint for economic recovery, but it is safe to completely rule out the possibility that Hillary will give Reaganomics a shot.
