The same people claiming the Trump Boom is because of Obama also unanimously predicted the economy would instantly tank because of Trump before he was elected. It’s wild that Obama was so skilled at setting up economics that all it took for it to boom was electing an idiot

You forgot:
3) Trying to make any connection to the current economy after campaigning that low growth and stagnant manufacturing jobs was the new norm for America and we were just going to have to get used to it is in very poor taste.

Do the stats really support that though? By returns, the stock market did better under Obama, job numbers were better, and unemployment rate was cut from 9.9% in 2009 down to 4.7 in 2016, 4.1 in 2017.
YET, official Department Of Labor stats show that the country's Job Participation Rates plummeted almost a full 3% while Obama was in office...from 65.7% to 62.8%. In September of 2015, it hit low levels not reached since Jimmy Carter was President. In contrast, those same rates have risen from 62.8% to 63.4% while President Trump has been in office. LINK

Corrupt incompetent racist and disgraced former president Obama took over a stock market that was off 60 percent and unemployment at historic highs.
He had the worst recovery of any downturn in history. Most of the unemployment was people simply falling out of the work force.
Trump took over a stock market that was at prerecession levels.
Economy wise, only an idiot would argue corrupt incompetent racist and disgraced former president Obama had anything but a shite economic record.
Well and liars, which is probably from whom you get your news.

This is the DNC trying to push their message.

Yes... Obama DID save the economy and prevent a depression regardless of what you think of him. The fact that the far left hates the way he did it (in addition to his refusal to pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan asap) should earn him at least a few conservative kudos.
Overall he wasn't great for this country due to his ushering in of race based woke identity politics but the inability to give credit where credit is due is tin foil nonsense.

ignorant comment from an Obama lover.
the legacy this idiot leaves will not go well.
the fake news media will not be able to overcome the truth which always prevails.
"The One" will be remembered as The None.

i know who the democrats are and what they believe in. but these Republicans that hide in the weeds like wolves and talk out of both sides of there mouths are yellow dog spineless hippocrates.
to hell with these political snakes in Washington.

I am not a big Obama supporter, but he is right that the economic recovery from the Great Recession that he inherited started with him and the massive tax cut accelerated it under Trump. Facts do say that the last three years of Obama created more jobs that Trump’s three years. We have a great under Trump but Obama deserves some credit.
