Sorry, economically, Trump had nothing over Obama whose economy you guys called "anemic." Here's a little quiz for ya - in the following chart of job creation, spot the pre-pandemic "trump miracle" AKA the point where Trump's policies made a difference in job creation. Can you show us where the "Trump miracle" kicked in?
Yeah, I know, your argument in favor of Trump is based on only picking out the good years under Trump and ignoring the times when bad things are happening. Sorry, that's cherry-picking.
