Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Monday that Sen. Cory Booker was wrong to claim that President Trump is incorrectly taking credit for an economic boom started by former President Barack Obama.

...

Gingrich, R-Ga., said on “America’s Newsroom” that Booker “keeps repeating rhetoric that’s false,” adding that “anybody who’s serious knows that none of [the recovery] had anything to do with Barack Obama.”

He said Trump has bested Obama-era GDP growth numbers every quarter since taking office, and that American manufacturing and wage growth has increased “dramatically.”

Obama is like a guy who could not open a jar for 8 years, and when Trump does it he says “I loosened it for you”<

Beautiful, Couldn't say it better

I had a feast for mostly famine existence during the time of the wun.

Retirement will be when I go in a pine box.

Thanks for nothing the damned wun and his minions.

Obama not only didn’t do it, he said it couldn’t be done.

All you have to do is to think back to eight years of BO. Every week, every month, when economic statistics were reported they were poorer than predicted by the “experts”. And the previous month was revised to the worse.

Compare that to the Trump world were every report is better than predicted and last month is revised as better than previously thought.

And Obama planted the seeds and should get credit? BS!

Obama even told us to embrace the suck. The poor economy was the new norm according to the tanned irishman.
