The jar with the lid that was stuck is a better analogy than the parade analogy.

LOL. Maybe a better analogy would be to say that once it stopped raining those sitting on the sidelines who were huddled under umbrellas and rain slickers joined the parade and gave it new life.

At this very moment, the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors is giving a news conference on Fox and CNN. He just said Obama policies had a negative effect on growth. Trump got rid of theses policies. He showed different charts on various economical statistics that show the blue line of Obama policies heading down and then the red line of Trump policies head up after Trump took over.

What kind of man takes credit for another's accomplishments?

Republican politicians are pretty experienced at it. Trump comes to mind ...

Maybe being a man for him would mean admitting his policies failed and people voted out his scurge on America! Then he could sit with us as Americans and help make our country great again. Sore loser.
If Obama was allowed 3rd term, he d have won I guess.

And answer to who takes credits for others accomplishments ? Managers.

I was hoping that you could point to specific regulations that he removed which are responsible for the economic success rather than a YouTube video.

What is boils down to is Obama wants credit for something he COULD have done (create a more pro-business political climate) but DIDN'T and now he wants credit for something that Trump did as soon as he took the reins. The primary thrust of Obama's agenda was social justice, not economic growth.
