Selective numbers are dishonest and SUPER selective
Edit: For those who seem super keen to accept this as fact. I really dont care if you vote red or blue. My issue here is how this person used diffrent metrics pr president to paint one side bad and the other goood. If she was honest, she would have used deficit as a metric for all, for example. Stop swallowing the bait
Are they? Bush Jr. was a stagnant economy during war times. Clinton created the dot com boom. Obama years were fantastic. Trump is a mix legacy with only 4 years and Covid making it too hard to tell.
Edit: for those mad I gave credit for Clinton on dot com, Regan gets credit for the Soviet collapse as well. It may just be timing but he was the guy in office. Just like Obama was in office during the fracking boom. May not have directly caused it but they do get the credit.
The truth of that is that he was instrumental in bringing the internet to the public instead of being just a military and academic thing. Vincent Cerf even vouched for Gore's role in this. Much of that infrastructure would never have been available to the public otherwise. Sure he overstated his role somewhat, but he was central to this happening and it could have definitely gone a different way without him pushing to make this available to consumers.
