He seems to have done a reasonably good job of dealing with that.
I agree. Over the years, one of the common talking points about the Trump led economy was that he inherited a strong economy and simply kept it going. I'm not an economist and that is likely a reductionist argument to a degree, but these data do show that the economy was doing quite well by the end of Obama's presidency.
