American, It was the Obama administration that got us out of the Great Recession. I give Trump credit for not doing anything to ruin the recovery. This p******c has destroyed the American economy. The news said that forty percent of the American people are worried about putting food on the table. My complaint is, why hasn't Trump followed the advise of his experts and encouraged the American people to follow the advise of his own experts like Dr. F***i? We would still have economic problems, but they would be less serious than they are now.
Economic prosperity is very important, but subtract the cost of much more hurricanes on the gulf coast, wild fires in the west, and warming in states like Alaska which has experienced the worst salmon runs in recorded history. I'm not blaming Trump for g****l w*****g, but he certainly doesn't care about it.

Yes - what does that have to do with it?

Worst post recession recovery in history.

Someone put it nicely - the American economy recovered not because of obama but in spite of obama.

I know it's hopeless but here are some facts. The Obama recovery was the slowest recovery since the Great Depression. Pitiful. IMO much of that was due to the fact he and hardly anyone in his administration had any private business experience. Obama got any bounce in the economy because he spent trillions in stimulus and much of that ended up in Wall Street. Even with trillions his recovery was a dismal failure. Never in eight years did he reach 3% growth per annum. His burdensome regulations k**led small business and other policies ran corporate jobs off shore. Trump did follow advice from experts. You are such a liar. He followed the advice of CDC experts but also economic advisers. He also let Governors play the role the Constitution sets out for them. I know how you liars work. If Trump would have shut down the country (most medical experts now admit that's the wrong thing to do) and the economy would have completely tanked you lying a**holes would have blamed him for ruining the economy.

Fact is he had a Republican senate who set on anything that could have helped the recovery, Remember the Grim Reaper of bills Mitch McConnell, he gave himself that name.

B.S.. you obviously don’t know how the economy works in a capitalist society. He over regulated everything he could. He also had both chambers for awhile. Obama was one of the biggest empty suits and anti American presidents ever.

.

The first 2 years of the obama regime the democrats controlled both the House and the Senate.

And for the first two years He put enough inn place to continue the rise of employment and the economy to carry the country thru trumps first two despite the 6 years of obstruction.

The obama ‘recovery’ was the worst post recession recovery since the Great Depression in 29. Some accurately said the American economy recovered not because of obama but in spite of obama.

He put nothing in place soy boy. There were no great job stimulus bills. What most don’t realize is after a down turn if govt. gets out of the way economies recover. The normal cycles are expansion, peak, contraction, trough.
