Former President Obama took to Twitter Monday for the purpose of celebrating the 11th anniversary of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). It seemed an odd time to celebrate an $830 billion “stimulus” bill that is universally regarded as a failure. Even the New York Times described ARRA as an ineffective exercise in neoliberalism in an opinion piece titled “Barack Obama’s Biggest Mistake.” Yet our erstwhile president insists that it launched “more than a decade of economic growth and the longest streak of job creation in American history.” This is easy to dismiss as solipsistic bluster, but there is method in Obama’s madness..

And by any standard of the day, o'Bombastic, you were never a natural born US Citizen.
Doesn't matter if you were born on US soil, or not, your biological father was not a US citizen, and your mother was too young to convey citizenship, under the circumstances. Then she married an Indonesian. No. I will never consider you a legitimate US President. Just a pretender foisted on us by foreign interests and the media.
And YOU certainly didnt build this Economy, Mr. 'Manage-the-Decline'.

When your entire life has been one big lie after another, it’s easy to say and do anything to gild your own lilly.

Yea, decreasing Obambi regulations and taxes, not to mention putting America's interest first with trade, had nothing to do with the economy. If we had just put in more regulations, taxes and run off millions more jobs overseas, we would be basking in the glow of a 0.9% yearly GDP growth.

The funny thing is, BO is not doing this to help his party. He is doing it because he is a narcissist and trying to grab the spotlight back. He said stuff like this months ago and was panned for it. He is not aging well.

Obama is admitting that the economy is much better now that he is living in a mansion on Martha's Vineyard and not in the White House.
Enjoy the ocean Barry!

In a way O is correct. All of O's taxes and regulations were the brakes holding back the expansion, all Trump had to do was un-do O's taxes and regulations to set the economy free to grow.

Oh yes he did. You were too busy trying to blame all YOUR problems and incompetence on Dubya remember? Even 6 or 7 years into your own era, you were still trying to blame somebody else for your own failures. Now that somebody is doing way better than you ever did, you are trying to steal the credit for that too. We know the reality and you did not build this Stinky. Trump did it with no help from your party. He is now on target to finish the destruction of your toxic legacy and replace it with one that actually works for a change.

The Won's ego far exceeds his reputation.
The boy fails in building anything other than animosity and hatred.

If you are a cat in Texas you are really nervous because Obama's dog pound...umm...you know what I mean? I don't believe Obama ever built anything except a false narrative about who and what he is. I don't buy his marriage, his kids or his "wife"... He wasn't capable of doing anything but damage the US Economy because he doesn't understand economics! Well...except for we all give all our money to the government and then they dole it back to us as they see fit!
