Obama added more green jobs in industries like solar than have existed in coal mining over the last decade.
And many of the govt. funded solar companies he invested in to create those jobs lose money or have gone under. Think I read somewhere that they spent 100k/yr to create a 60k/yr. job. Something like that.
This article says 904,000 full time jobs were created last month while over 600k part time jobs were lost.
Economy is humming here and it's doing much better than under Obama. Plus the Obama Fed injected trillions into the economy to artificially support it -- so not really a fair comparison IMHO.
actually bush signed off on the short term loans that corrected the liquidity issues. you can maybe say obama inherited a crashed stock market and financial sector, but to say he inherited 'destruction' or a completely destroyed economy is delusional.
Did you forget about the bankrupt auto industry and spiraling down real estate market somewhere in your claims? Thank you, President Obama!
no and your comment doesn't disprove anything i just said.
Most people agree that we were in a recession under Bush. The Labor stats show that and your statement doesn't tell that. You have proven nothing. A crash is a destruction for Americans!

The jobless rate inched down to 3.8% in May, another sign of the strong economy and tight labor market. That tied the lowest unemployment rate since 1969. Since then, the only other time unemployment was this low was in April 2000. The economy added 223,000 jobs, better than economists expected.
"The US economy has this incredible head of steam," said Josh Wright, chief economist at the software firm iCIMS.
list the REAL policy changes Trump has made that have driven this economy and i will accept he "did it".
But you can't so you won't. The best you will be able to come up with is claiming a "general vibe" a feeling etc. Because Trump has not actually done a damn thing other than give money to the rich...
There has been no change from Obama's economic policies and if you doubt go ASK ON THE ECON FORUM, they will dissect it for you and explain how and why a POTUS who has not changed policy gets zero credit.
