Scarborough credits Obama for strong economy: 'This is not an economy Donald Trump gave us'

Former President Obama deserves more credit for the strong U.S. economy than President Trump, according to MSNBC's Joe Scarborough.

"Yeah, it's a strong economy," Scarborough told "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski. "But Mika, this is not an economy that Donald Trump gave us. This is an economy that's part of the seven year ongoing recovery."

Scarborough also said this "isn't the greatest economy ever" and that it "isn't close to the greatest economy ever."

"Barack Obama had more people getting jobs his last 16 or 18 months than they had jobs during Donald Trump's first 16 or 18 months," he said.

You knew it was only a matter of time. Obama’s economy was really Bush’s economy. Now Trump’s economy is really Obama’s economy.

I wonder what the REAL polling numbers are, that these people are seeing?

They keep lying more openly, yet nothing seems to be going traction out side of the 10%-20% nuts and angry democrat base.

If you have a successful business, you did not build that.

They don’t care about the economy. The most important issue in the history of the world is the Trump Tower meeting.

That’s why elections are always determined by the economy of the past president, not the current president.

In general, the last people on Earth that you ought to ask about how to create jobs....are guys who’ve spent their entire lives within government service. I would even go and say that the last people on Earth who know how to bring fans into an NFL stadium....are the players themselves.

If Obama ever had an economy close to this current one, I’m sure the media and Scarborough would have given most of the credit to George Bush … /s
