Two months of the first quarter was still Obama. Can the entire GDP of the USA really shift in a period of two months?
Well considering that every single bit of bad economic news between January 2009 and January 2017 was blamed on the President’s immediate predecessor, I think it’s fair to do so now and blame slow first quarter growth on Obama.
44’s term ended on Jan 20 so not even a full month of the first quarter was under his admin.
