The most recent Total Solar Irradiance numbers from the PMOD composite are lower than the estimated TSI throughout the 20th Century.
The Sun has definitely cooled off.

Hmmm? Still winter in Canada and the NW US causing flooding and tornadoes in the Midwest. Huge snow packs in the Cascades and Rockies.
Could be!

Prior to the industrial revolution, the sun probably accounted for about 10 to 30 percent of climate variability, Hathaway told SPACE.com, but now that greenhouse gases have started to build up, "the sun's contribution is getting smaller and smaller," he added.
Is he related to Jane Hathaway? The greenhouse gases depend on the sun for any effect they have. Besides, CO2 was already on the increase before the Industrial Revolution, probably from the last round of warming in the Medieval Warm Period. It's been around the right length of time from the onset of the MWP to the start of the increase in CO2.
