I had spent eight years cleaning up the mess that the Republicans left. I had spent eight years getting the auto industry back on track, reopening factories. So when I handed over 75 straight months of job growth to Donald Trump. all he did was give a tax cut to people who didn't need it, drove up the deficits in the process. So don't have nostalgia for what his economy was, because that was mine. (43:49–43:56)
