If they’re talking about growth during the Obama economy, don’t they know it’s not credible unless they use the words “unexpectedly slower than anticipated” and “revised downward”? I can barely remember a report during Obama’s eight years that didn’t include those terms.

Yeah, because over 1,000 congressional and state legislative seats switched from Donkey to Elephant during 0bozo’s reign? Thank you.

Funny since Obama himself told us all the economy would never perform the way it used to and we had all better just get used to it.

Obama spent his entire two terms blaming the miserable economic results his policies yielded on the W. Bush administration.

When he wasn't doing that, he was telling coal miners, factory workers and others to retrain because those jobs weren't coming back.

For eight years, O said the economy was bad because of Bush. Now, after just two yr into the Trump economy, O and liberals say the current economy is good because of O. Ha ha ha.

Obiously Logic taught in Universities today is different than Logic taught in 1950. The ability to lie, deny, and miss the point, probably lowers stress, anxiety and the don’t have to take as many MEDS to face the real world.

He may deserve some credit for holding the economy back for eight years and when he left office the pressure was so great that the pent up economic demand created a huge boom. I thought it would happen 6 years ago.

The 8-year Great Recession started in the last year of the Bush administration after the Democrats were going on and on about how it was the worst economy in 20 years. Obama had no idea how to handle an economy so he got a 1.2 trillion dollar stimulus package that was so big he couldn’t fail. Everything Obama did had the effect of depressing the economy further. Like a really fat guy on a horse. Once he got off the horse it had to run like crazy.

I can think of other analogies like constipation but I don’t think I will elaborate on that one.

The “Magic Negro” couldn’t even spell the word economy! And he sure as hell “didn’t build that (the economy)!”

The best thing to do is to completely ignore this.

The people saying it know better, and it isn’t going to have any effect on voters in the next election.

It’s chaff.

Trump would not have gotten the economic boost from reversing Obama’s policies, if not for Obama.

Yet they took credit for the Clinton economy in the early 90’s, although it was on the upswing at the end of Pop Bush’s term? Then Gingrich came in with their Promise to America, and Clinton got all the credit. Democrats live by the double standard.

Economic ignorance and dictator urges are a poor combination.

But before the economy took off it was all Trumps fault.

It’s pretty easy to have job growth coming OUT of a recession. But after years of negligible GDP growth, once the occupant leaves office and job growth skyrockets, its hard to say the previous guy was anything but an impediment.
