“And the reason some people think, ‘I remember that economy when he first came in being pretty good’ – yeah, it was pretty good because it was my economy! We had had 75 straight months of job growth that I handed over to him! It wasn’t something he did! I had spent eight years cleaning up the mess that the Republicans had left me the last time. So just in case everyone has a hazy memory, he didn’t do nothing! Except those big tax cuts. His other big economic plan now is to slap tariffs on everything, from food to TVs.” Obama said.
Obama also made a comment about Trump donning diapers during a conversation with an audience member during the rally.
