Barack Obama Says Donald Trump Is Taking Credit for His Economy

Former Pres. Barack Obama reminded us that Donald Trump inherited his economy. And the data proves it.

The average quarterly economic growth under Trump was 2.5%, almost exactly what it was under Obama’s second term: 2.4%. Trump’s pre-pandemic economy grew along trends established during Obama’s leadership, and there wasn’t a dramatic shift when Trump took office.

The data suggests Trump didn’t build a great economy — Obama did.

I still don't comprehend that people would prefer Trump for his economy. Which one? How come he managed to lose close to 2 million jobs in four years.

I keep telling people. Republican Presidents have it so good when the president before their term was a democratic President.

From former President Obamas pov, it must have been heartbreaking to watch everything he’d worked so hard for, for eight years, be wrecked by the tre45on in chief.

[domingo-]

Agreed 👍🏾💯

All Trump did for two years was give himself a HUGE tax break and go golfing while denying anything to do with COVID.
