It’s not nuancy!
Rates are still higher than when he took office. It would be nice to “cut” them back to where they were starting out.
Are you conveniently forgetting the rate hikes?
When the economy is strong rates go up. We generally cut rates when the economy is weak.
So if the economy has been buzzing along and surging for the last two years why we had three rate cuts this year? Do we need to go back and look at what Trump has previously said about interest rates? Why is any of this even having to be explained?

We need at least 300k to keep up with population growth
Yes. Massive deficit stimulus spending at full employment will do that. Or did you conveniently forget our $1trillion deficits?

Let’s try something different.
Try getting your premier or whatever he’s called to act right. And sign the trade agreement.
The economy may be one of or the single biggest motivator for liberals to push so hard on this shampeachment. They cant win with their loser candidates and they certainly cant win against trumps economy.

Already signed it, has to make it though the House now which is going to be hard since no party has majority.
Slow…hardly since payroll growth went up by $450 per year under GWB’s entire 8 years and $1000 per year under Obama’s entire eight years. In Trumps first 3 years payrolls have gone up $4-5000 per year and that doesn’t even include the $2000 tax credit, so it’s anything but slow! 
Interesting. I’d love to read the whole article where you got this from. That’s pretty interesting and sounds great.
To what end?
Link please.

No, rates are raised to control/retard inflation.
Read up on fed policy sometime.
In the case of the rate hikes during this administration they blew it, they thought they were heading off inflation that never materialized and finally recognized it and reduced rates.
According to whom? The old bar was around 100k.

Doesn’t actually seem to have moved much.
A different result.
Intellectually intimidated.
