>>Those two did help the economy

Unfortunately, saying it doesn't make it so. Certainly, CfC was nothing more than a laughingstock. Just stupi.

When Romer declared the stimulative effect over, we were still facing some of the worst unemployment of the recession. Even obama himself made fun of the "shovel ready" jobs. It was essentially the same bungled effort which dragged out the Great Depression for a full decade.

As to Trump, the economy started building the day after Election Day and hasn't slowed down.
