It sounds nice to say that, but it isn't reality. The GOP deserves the blame for 2008. And they weren't exactly willing participants in Trump's strong economy. Thank god I'm not a republican.

How do they deserve blame? The cra that lowered lending standards was a Democrat idea.
Bush wasted thousands of American lives and bodies and trillions of dollars trying to "fix" Iraq and Afghanistan.
That didn't cause the recession though, the CRA and poor mortgage policies did.
We spent trillions of dollars. More debt. It all adds up.

Emissions are the least. If the greens had practiced sound science and replaced coal with nuclear plants 40 years ago, we’d have plenty of cheap power and a cleaner environment.
The bushes ran on, and supported, the expansion and interventionism of the government.
I just had a $3 tanqueray and tonic at Applebees, maybe I will survive in THIS economy
