LOL.
Well, there was the Economic Stimulus Package which cut taxes, extended unemployment benefits, and funded public works projects. Then there was the American Recovery And Reinvestment Act which pumped $250 billion into the economy, which lead to a 3.9 GDP by early 2010. He signed the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform Act to protect us from this happening again.
You can spin it any way you want, but Obama did better all around.
Trump the other day was talking about how his administration has crated 3.4 million new jobs in the past eighteen months. And that sounds impressive. However, during the last eighteen months of Obama's administration they had created 3.7 million jobs. This is the Republican standard - claiming the economy was bad under Obama, but much better under Trump. That's not true. It's good under Trump, but just not as good as it was under Obama.
I'm going make sure this next statement stand out.
Trump walked into office with a perfect economy, increased our deficit by 32% in one year, and still can't match Obama's numbers.
