Despite the abundance of stories of how Trump’s tax plan has aided dozens of big companies in passing on their saved money to their employees, CNN refused to give Trump credit for the positive economic growth.

That part irked the liberals on CNN’s New Day panel, who griped that Trump really didn’t deserve credit for any of these developments.

CNN International host Christiane Amanpour not only disagreed that Trump should be taking credit for the economy, but claimed that “most” people agreed that President Obama was really the one responsible:

CNN still talking about Russia and complaining about fake news.

You don’t really miss anything if you haven’t watched them for awhile.

Liberals have nothing positive to talk about.

Poor O’Bunghole, got a raw deal and worked so hard, and all of his anti business policies and regulations just happened to finally start working immediately after Trump was elected

And what actions did Bambi take to make this happen?

Talk down America?

Insist there is no magic wand to return manufacturing to the U.S.?

Insist that 2% growth is the new normal?

Fighting for TPP and against Brexit?

But that’s ok because none of CNN’s viewer ask critical questions.

They can try to give Obama the credit, but the roots of the boom can be traced to November 9, 2016. That is the day AFTER the presidential election. That is the day AFTER there was no 3rd Obama term Hillary Clinton presidency.

The media and Libs tried for 8 years to sell the ‘new normal’ — slow economic growth, low job creation, high unemployment, low wages.

Well to be fair, I recall him saying he considered joining the military but by the time he was old enough, VN was already over so he didn’t. Uh, yeah, I’m buyin’ that. NOT!

Easy. If BO is to be given credit for the booming economy, then it shouldn’t be long before it heads into the toilet - as Trump policies have been the opposite of those enacted by BO.
