of course, cause Obama being the POTUS that brought us back from a near depression counts for nothing, his diplomacy in building allies was actually weakness and Trumps corruption is just media false news trying to set him up...

not sure how much of the slow, sluggish come back was Obama or the fact that people were tired of the stagnant pause in folks hiring or investing and decided to take a chance and go for it, therefore kick starting a come back. And as for his diplomacy , a complete failure, ask Israel , and turkey. Corruption? Show me actual evidence of corruption the real corruption has always been a trademark of the liberal democrats. Nice try though

of course

the POTUS one supports is always given credit for all the progress and excuses for all the issues
(like how in the first 3 months trumpeteers were applauding that some jobs stayed in the USA because of Trump or that stocks were doing well because of Trump but how hatefulness and violence had nothing to do with Trump but people trying to make Trump look bad)

the POTUS one does not support is always given blame for all the issues, yet never sure if they really deserve 'credit' for any progress
(like how Obama was blamed for the 'divisiveness' between some of our citizens and the police but is possibly not 'really' responsible for the turnaround of our recession)

,,typical politics,,,

more lies...we were never that close to depression, a lie made up by the liberals so they could pat them selves on the back, making money on the fools who believed their lies and for getting us 20 trillion dollars in debt...thanks obarry, hillary and the other loudmouth libs who conned america......

Correction then, we DID come back from one of only a handful of RECESSIONS in US HISTORY

from Investopedia, a source that FINRA recommends for its broker/agent licensing:

Aside from two consecutive quarters of GDP decline, economists assess several metrics to determine whether a recession is imminent or already taking place. These indicators are divided into two categories: leading indicators and lagging indicators. Leading indicators materialize before a recession is officially declared. Perhaps the most common leading indicator is contraction in the stock market. Declines in broad stock indices, such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 index, often appear several months before a recession takes shape. This was the case in 2007, when the market began declining in August, four months ahead of the official recession in December 2007.

Lagging indicators of a recession include the unemployment rate. Though the Great Recession began in December 2007, the unemployment rate still indicated full employment -- a rate of 5% or lower -- four months later. The unemployment rate began declining in May 2008 and did not recover until several months after the recession ended in June 2009.
