Heh! You must be a youngster. Who can forget Clinton’s constant drumbeat in 1992 (when the economy was growing at 3.7 percent)...”the worst economy in 50 years.”
I correct myself... GDP growth during the four quarters of 1992 was 4.5%, 4.3%, 4.2%, and 4.3%!
“Worst economy in 50 years” — the MSM pushed it relentlessly and never questioned it. People swallowed it hook, line and sinker. Never underestimate the stupidity of the US electorate.
