"Let's look at the facts," Obama said. "Since I have come into office, there's almost no economic metric by which you couldn't say that the U.S. economy is better and that corporate bottom lines are better. None."
He went on to cite the administration's successes: "a record stock market," "record corporate profits," 52 straight months of consecutive job growth" and "an energy sector that's booming."

Obama did start off in the midst of the second worse economic downturn in US history with a GOP Congress unwilling to support deficit spending to help fix it. Trump started with the US economy already in record territory, which continued until the GOP passed their ignorant, fiscally-responsible tax cut which led to two 1,000 point drops in the Dow due to inflationary pressures.
