OBAMA BUGGED THAT TRUMP, REPUBLICANS GETTING CREDIT FOR THE ‘ECONOMIC MIRACLE’ (FUBO)

Obama could not hold back his irritation that Trump is receiving credit for the roaring economy nearly two years after his leaving office.

At a speech at the University of Illinois, Obama scoffed that some of the greatest economic numbers in American history are occurring under Trump’s administration. Obama mentioned the financial crisis at the beginning of his term saying “When I came into office in 2009 we were losing 800,000 jobs a month.”

“Millions of people were losing their homes. Many were worried we were entering into a second Great Depression. So we worked hard to end that crisis but also to break some of these longer-term trends,” Obama said, “And initiated the longest streak of job creation on record. We covered another 20 million Americans with health insurance and we cut our deficits by more than half, partly by making sure people like me who have been given such amazing opportunities by this country, pay our fair share of taxes, to help folks coming up behind us.”

“I mention all this just so when you hear how great the economy is doing right now, let’s just remember when this recovery started,” Obama then said, “I’m glad it’s continued but when you hear about this economic miracle that’s been going on, when the job numbers come out, monthly job numbers, suddenly Republicans are saying ‘It’s a miracle.’ I have to remind them, actually, those job numbers are the same as they were in 2015 and 2016.”

We knew it was coming, but it's still infuriating.

What pointless little jerk this person is.

Damn, politicians are so small, it just boggles the mind.

Why do we tolerate these people among us? Why do we need them, WTF is the point of any of these people?

I really, really, really hope Trump tweets about Hussein’s rant.

If it weren’t for the Republicans who took over Congress in 2010, the US economy wold be based on barter, and programs on cannibalism would be featured on the Food Channel.

Obama wants us to believe that for 8 years, while the nation treaded water he was building a speed boat to come to the rescue, then he launched it after he left office.

Right

Curious. I remember nothing but stagnancy under the jug-eared jackass.

Obama is the Jimmy Carter of the 21st century. He left the economy in a ditch.

In the 20th century, we had Ronald Reagan come in to fix things.

Fortunately we had Donald Trump available to come in and clean up the mess in the 21st.

The former Soy Boy in Chief blamed all of his problems on Bush for eight years; all while doing all that he could to stifle economic growth. Along comes Trump and his team to begin to unshackle the nation from the burdens of Barry the Insane, and Dipstick claims that he is responsible for all the growth. I loathe that lazy bastard.

And just play that bullshot next to all of his statements on video where he basically said stuff like Trump can never brings jobs back to America, and crap about “magic wands”.

"When I came into office in 2009..."

Yea, that is when you shoved Obama Care on the US.

We lost our jobs, business and many their homes

Doesn’t all this bs mean we don’t need Democrats? According to them things are great 2 years after they left AND this is accomplished by some unknown RINO functionaries. Why would anyone put Democrats and their barely breathing economy back in power?

Socialists always blame others for their failures and take credit for the success of others.

Oh they kept blaming Bush the whole damn 8 years.

But the minute he leaves, and things drastically improve?

Oh, that’s all Obama!

When I left office (thank God) a million years ago, remember? Do any of you remember me?
