That “trend” that you are seeing is a natural progression after years of economic malaise. If you get out of the way a recession will recover within a couple or three years. Obama dragged it out for eight years.

But it takes a lot more economic progress to drive the level of unemployment BELOW 4.0 than it does to get it down TO 4.0 (which is considered full employment).

Save for five months, we have not seen this level of unemployment since the early 70s. And we’ve never seen this level of black unemployment.

It is crazy to try to credit obama with this economic progress, and frankly, suggests you may be a tad more biased than I’ve tended to credit you with. You seem to be working overtime to keep from giving The Don his due...
