Title: Buttigieg: Trump ‘Rode the Tail End of the Obama-Biden Economic Recovery’

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” former South Bend, IN Mayor Pete Buttigieg said President Donald Trump did not improve the economy.

Instead, he argued Trump “rode the tail end of the Obama-Biden economic recovery.”

Buttigieg said, “Let’s look at the economy. Look, the president is not good at much, but he is very good for taking credit for having rode the tail end of the Obama-Biden economic recovery, but even pre-pandemic we were having a lot of trouble especially in my part of the country, the industrial Midwest, manufacturing was going into recession. Now we are where we are. The economy is in such precarious shape, unprecedented unemployment numbers, unbelievable pain that people are experiencing and because of the inaction of this White House, but that’s likely to get worse as we go into the fall.”

“So if they want to battle on the economy, let’s have that battle,” he continued. “But let’s also remember that our democracy, our national character and our ability to fight a deadly pandemic are all on the line, not to mention the fact that the United States also needs to restore our credibility around the world. Something that’s very important both for our security and, in my view, for democracy and other shared priorities around the world.”

What do you expect from a butt cowboy? Moron should know better than to use phrases like 'tailend', but then it's something that is always on his mind.

It's peculiar.  First they said Trump was going to ruin the economy, then they said the economy is great because of O'Bastard, and now they say the economy is for shit because Trump ruined it. 

ETA:  "Tail End" is not the kind of thing we need to hear from Buttgig.  :terror:

Note to Pete:

Even an idiot can see that during the last couple of years of Obama the DJ was flat until the 2016 election results.

All backwards talk by communists.  All regulations in Obamcare was to KILL JOBS and prosperity.  When it went into effect, 800, 000 jobs were lost immediately.  Then MORE lay offs, later.  No one could work a 40 hour job.  People had to have 2 or 3 PART TIME JOBS to survive.  Obama, known as the FOOD STAMP PRESIDENT.  How does anyone get it was a "great economy" under him?
Obama said, he does not want America to be exceptional.  He does not believe in that, then did everything he could to destroy America.  They want to give him 'credit' for TRUMP ECONOMY?  There is the mental disorder....again. 
POTUS TRUMP...REMOVED ALL KIND OF JOB KILLING REGULATIONS , PUT IN OBAMA.

Buttigieg knows a lot about "tail ends".  I am not sure he knows a lot about economic recovery though.

Buttigieg: Trump ‘Rode the Tail End of the Obama-Biden Economic Recovery’

Folks, you gotta take it from little Pete.
He certainly knows about "tail ends"...

Addendum:
Posted before I read any of the responses.
There seems to be some kinda consensus here!

Yep. Then he dismissed Obama's papal proclamation that the economy could never grow over 2%, and knocked it out of the park.

I was hoping to never hear from old Buttisgay again.

I suspect it is unusual for Butt Plug to be wrong about things related to a "tail end",so he is obviously lying.

@libertybele

You never have to bother trying to figure it out because it is always whatever they need it to be.

Job creation under Obama - 1.42 million per year (beginning with a very low 2009)
Job creation under Trump - 2.25 million per year (beginning at the pinnacle of Obama's economic miracle)
