The stock market has gained 30 percent in value since the presidential election of Trump.
President Donald Trump has frequently stated at rallies and on Twitter how the economy has boomed under his control.
Things are going really well for our economy, a subject the Fake News spends as little time as possible discussing! Stock Market hit another RECORD HIGH, unemployment is now at a 17 year low and companies are coming back into the USA. Really good news, and much more to come!

However, former President Barack Obama doesn’t think Trump is the reason for the economic boom. Instead, Obama is taking credit himself.
During a speech last Tuesday at a Chicago climate change summit, Obama said that his efforts to fight climate change were the reasons why “we saw the U. S. economy grow consistently.” He went on, « We saw the longest streak of job creation in American history by far — a streak that still continues, by the way.”
He then added some comedy and said, “Thanks Obama!”
Well now, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders is firing back at the former president on Twitter:
Since the election “the jobless rate for African Americans dropped from 8% to 7.3%, while for Hispanics it fell from 5.7% to 4.7%…and with Trump’s big tax cuts on the way, job growth isn’t likely to end soon -more good news for all Americans.” -Investor’s Business Daily
