Youth: you don't understand how Democrats view Presidents.
First and foremost, Presidents to Democrats are establishment father figures (similar ironically to how Russians view their presidents; read this article and substitute 'Obama' for Putin and you'll understand: https://www.newsweek.com/2014/12/05/put ... 86464.html ). Naturally a Dem will say 'but Trump', failing to understand that 'Trump' (and the adulation of him) is less about a father figure and way more a metaphor for sticking it to the establishment; Trump is not the establishment by any stretch nor is he anyone's father figure.
Second and nearly as importantly, they assume that Presidents 'create' jobs, not the people who actually create jobs, entrepreneurs. This shows a fundamental disconnect with capitalism, and why (as I repeat too often) Democrat policies are the antithesis of what America is all about.
It's an odd thing to read anyone who thinks a President 'created' a job; its' amusing and scary at the same time.
The best thing a President can do for actual job creators is get out of the way. Too often, they don't.
Obama is responsible for all of 4 jobs in his entire life; those are the cooks and cleaners in his various houses. However, Obama is a net job destroyer, since he utilizes the services of taxpayer-paid (that is, it comes out of your pocket, not his) Secret Service employees numbering 12. Obama's post-presidency life has been about one thing: fattening his own bank account, and that's fair; really, who cares if people are dumb enough to pay to listen to him give a speech.
Meanwhile, CU77 thinks Obama created jobs.
