Worst. President. Ever: Obama First President EVER to Not Reach 3% GDP Growth

Guest post by Joe Hoft

In February 2011 (Fake News) Time Magazine Implied that Obama was like Reagan. This couldn’t have been further from the truth, especially when considering economic growth. Ronald Reagan brought forth an annual real GDP growth of 3.5 percent. Barack Obama will be lucky to average an annual 1.50 percent GDP growth rate during his two terms in office.

The rate of real economic growth is the single greatest determinant of both America’s strength as a nation and the well-being of the American people.

From 1790 to 2000, U.S. RGDP growth averaged 3.79 percent. America needs at least 3.0 percent economic growth-the nation cannot defend itself and pay its bills without it. However, America’s elites have largely given up on growth, and are now distracting themselves with academic musings about “secular stagnation.”

By February of 2016 it was clear that Obama had given up on economic growth. Obama’s Congressional Budget Office (CBO) forecasted in early 2016 that America will never see 3.0 percent economic growth again.

As a result of his failed economic policies, Obama currently ranks as the fourth worst presidency on record in GDP growth at 1.457 percent. Only Herbert Hoover (-5.65 percent), Andrew Johnson (-0.70 percent) and Theodore Roosevelt (1.41 percent) currently have lower average annual GDP growth than Barack Obama. In addition, Obama has the lowest annual GDP growth rate of any President since World War II.

Barack Obama will be the only U.S. president in history who did not deliver a single year of 3.0 percent + economic growth.

Obama’s economic policies failed America and resulted in 95 million without work, the debt at an astronomical $20 Trillion and more Americans on Food Stamps than ever before.

During his campaign, President Elect Donald Trump stated that he wanted to move GDP growth above 3.5 percent to 4 percent –

With the jobs saved to date since the election attributable to Trump, it looks like Trump is keeping his promise.
