The Myth that Obama is responsible for the Trump economy

Or Trump for that matter, but don't get in the way of Trump taking credit for things that he isn't responsible for.

The overall impact of the policies of any one President are not fully actualized until years later. Hence it is quite accurate to say, to some extent, any one President will benefit from/or be hindered by, the policies enacted by his predecessor. It's far too early to hail Trump as the architect of everything good, when that's were things were trending prior to him taking office. I use that as the example, only because it's current. It applies equally to each past President and every future President.

Take the tax revamp. Will it be good or bad? Way too soon to tell. In fact, the overall impact may not be known for years. I know how tax cuts have historically impacted things years later, but not how this particular plan will.

Hmm quite a few of his policies pulled this economy out of the worst Bush induced crash in history.

That decline was created by Bill Clinton and repealing Glass Stegall.

But hey who cares bout reality here.

Obama did nothing.

with your last line, you verified your second line

Obama was responsible for all the good in our lives , and Trump is currently responsible for all the bad

Well, 4 years from now things may change.
