What im saying is when you look at these charts you have to normalize for the global trend to get a sense of how much of it is ourpolicies vs global economy... If you look at obamas trend it largely matches the shape of the global eveonomy with no delay. So you see obama still improving unemployment on his own, but only at a marginally higher rate thant he global background. Suggesting a normalized chart would have obamas rate much lower than a cursory glance at the chart might suggest.
Likewise trumps rate post covid in terms of how fast unemployment dropped back to normal was record breaking itself and many orders of magnitude a higher rate of unemployment recovery than the global. suggesting Trumps unemployment rate of change was far greater than Obamas, since the original chart before normalization shows this and would be more pronounced post-normalization....
But thats the weeds... as we said we KNOW Trumps QE would do just that, have insanely good very short term results on unemployment, so there is no disputing he beat out obama on that metric by leaps and bounds .. but again he poisoned the well to do it.
And no one here is sayign Trump had a successful policy... he got the employment rate, legitimately super low and yes it was Trump that did that, not obama, but again, that isnt success.
Its a bit like enacting slavery and then taking credit thast the unemployment rate is 0... welll it really is 0, so you cant argue that, but to take it as a win given the big picture, no it isnt.
