Thanks Bush for destroying the stock market so I could make a massive profit under Obama.

In semi fairness to Bush, it was the cult of financial deregulation that created the opportunity for the overreach and the collapse under Bush. Republicans were responsible for a lot of that but Clinton was not exactly critical of abusive financial risk taking during his second term.

Obama presided over the second round of massive stimulus spending, which significantly helped fuel a straight line recovery which has continued unabated to this day.

Trump gets credit for not screwing it up over the last year. The only thing that causes concern now is the resumption of deregulation in capital industries which is what helped facilitate the collapse last time.
