Economic Boom: Media Rewrite History To Credit Obama Instead Of Trump
< < Go Back
Growth: The stronger the economy gets under President Trump, the more desperate his critics are to hand credit over to Obama. Even if that entails changing the past.
A recent New York Times story says it all: “An Economic Upturn Begun Under Obama Is Now Trump’s To Tout.”
The article begins by admitting that “by nearly every standard measure, the American economy is doing well,” then spends the next 1,400 words arguing that the current good times have nothing to do with Trump’s economic agenda.
The economy, reporter Patricia Cohen declares, “is following the upward trajectory begun under President Barack Obama.”
Upward trajectory?
We seem to recall that the economy was stagnating in 2016 after the weakest recovery from a recession since the Great Depression.
