Trump Is Falling Almost 1 Million Jobs Short Vs. Obama - not best Economy ever as claimed

[SoccerMom]

Let’s look at the real numbers

Monthly unemployment rate Obama inherited: 7.8%. Average monthly unemployment under Obama: 7.4%. Monthly unemployment rate Trump inherited: 4.7%. Average monthly unemployment under Trump: 4.1%

Job growth in the month Obama took office: -598,000. Average monthly job growth under Obama: +221,000. Job growth in the month Trump took office: +229,000. Average monthly job growth under Trump: +194,000

Deficit when Obama took office: $1.4 trillion. Average annual deficit under Obama: $900 billion. Deficit when Trump took office: $700 billion. Average annual deficit under Trump: $1.0 trillion.

Constitutional reminder: Spending bills can only originate in the House, which is under the control of the Democrats. Any spending deficits can rightly and wholly be laid at the feet of the Democrats.
At least we have a budget now. Obama never bothered with that pesky little requirement.

Let's see.

Highest deficits of all time. WORST job numbers of all time. Record HIGHEST food stamp use. Tanking Dow. Record number of homeless. Record number of people having GIVEN UP looking for a job.

It's no contest. Obama inherited a booming economy compared to the clusterfck that Trump inherited.

Obama lowered the deficit during his time in office. He improved job numbers. He improved the stock market.

Come up with some reliable sources and we'll talk. So far, you have none.

I came up with Investors Business Daily, the most reliable national economy source on the planet.

Sorry Obama, But It's Trump's Economic Boom, Not Yours
For eight years, President Obama presided over the worst economic recovery in modern times. For six years, he blamed Republicans in Congress for thwarting his spending agenda and hampering growth. In his last two years in office, he claimed that 2% growth was the best we could hope for. And in his last year in office, while the economy was again stalling out, Obama claimed that Trump's tax cuts and deregulation would only make things worse.


But now that we're in the midst of a booming economy — which kicked in after Trump reversed almost all Obama's economic policies — we're supposed to believe that it's Obama who deserves all the credit.

Trump’s BLS is not reliable?

After inheriting a gigantic structural deficit and a collapsed economy.
