Reagan seems to be the God for Republicans. They even follow his 11th Commandment. There is also a host of current GOP President candidates who liken themselves to Reagan, with one even claiming to be his son.
Reagan is the stick by which every Republican seems to measure himself and others.
Well, bad news, Republicans, Obama has made America great . . . AGAIN. Unemployment rates under President Obama are now lower than unemployment rates under Reagan and President Obama has still 16 months left to his tenure as President. Uh oh!
And even more satisfying is the reality that President Obama had to dig out of a huge recession (the Great Recession), left by George W. Bush.
Rachel discussed this in August and President Obama just keeps doing better . . . making American great again.
Here's the overall sexy chart showing the challenge President Obama faced when taking office. The economy was literally bleeding jobs every month.
I love how PoliticusUSA said it:
Barack Obama has proven to be a more successful president than Ronald Reagan. President Obama brought the country back from a bigger economic crisis, has a lower unemployment rate, and reduced the deficit instead of shattering the finances of the nation like Ronald Reagan did with trickle down economics.
In the face of Republican obstruction, President Obama has built a lasting legacy of presidential accomplishments.
If you want to make a Republican explode, simply point out that even by their own metrics of success Barack Obama has been a better president than Ronald Reagan.
Trump promises to make America great again. Well, some things are already pretty good.
Thanks, President Obama.
i think Trump was misunderstood i think what he means is make America White again. the only reason we aren't further down the road republican promise in 2008 to do nothing to make Pres. look good at we the people's expense.
but when you use despicable tactics to suppress and get hung upit that agenda for 7 years you miss the end runs and the things that are great for America you don't see them because you had no hand in achieving them so to admit it is to make Pres. look good and right about now much better than Reagan.
