Obama Rips Claim That Trump Economy Was Good: ‘It Was MY Economy!’

1. A president’s actions are often not felt until years after they’re signed.  I’ll admit he played a role good or bad.

   But people over estimate a president’s influence.  They are merely a rider on a bull holding on for dear life.  I feel it’s often the self correcting nature of the market economy that takes precedence.  The president can nudge that along.

   Somewhere like China, where the economy is more administered from the top, the leaders can take more credit or blame.

2. Bitter ex President upset that Trump did better than he did.

   Worth noting, Obama knew the whole time that Trump wasn’t working with the Russians. Obama was briefed in 2016 that the whole Russian collusion narrative was cooked up by hillary to distract from her emails and health issues.

   Obama will go down as the most corrupt president ever

3. What happened to ‘you didn’t build that’?

4. trump took office with a thriving economy left by President Obama and left office with record unemployment

   Doesn’t get much worse then that

5. Incoming presidents don’t even sign their first budget until the end of their first year.

   The first year of an incoming president, they are running on the budget signed by the last president.

   And because economic policies can take time to make an impact, there’s room to argue that the first two years largely belong to the last president.

   Trump took a roaring economy that Obama handed him, and he crashed it.

6. Obama bailed out Wall Street and had us in the longest bull run market in history. It was not Trump’s economy.
