Trump

No GOTCHA at all. Obama got the unemployment rate down to 4.7% before he left office. Trump has moved it 1.1% to 3.6%. Obama had already done most of the work. The USA was out of the recession when Trump took over. The USA is borrowing money from China to pay for those Tax cuts. The federal budget deficit has been increased back to over a Trillion dollars.

Despite the excellent start to 2019 with a 3.2% GDP, Kiplinger is predicting a 2019 GDP in the 2.6% range. If the GDP does fall to around 2.6% this year, should that be looked at as failure? I don't think so.

GDP growth

Over the course of Obama’s first year in office, GDP dropped 2.5 percent. In 2010, GDP growth recovered, surging 2.5 percent. Growth was already positive when Trump took office, jumping from 1.6 percent in 2016 to 2.2 percent in 2017. Trump might point us to quarterly GDP growth. The economy is estimated to have gained 4.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018, but that still pales in comparison with the 5.1 percent and 4.9 percent growth in the second and third quarters of 2014 under Obama.
