Yup. Sean Hannity Found A Way To Blame Obama For The Stock Market Drop: Yahoo News

President Barack Obama left office more than a year ago, but that didn’t stop Fox News host Sean Hannity from blaming him for the stock market slide.

On his Fox News radio show on Monday, Hannity said the market drop ― which at its worst saw the Dow industrials plunge by nearly 1,600 points and closing down 1,175 points, wasn’t the fault of President Donald Trump.

“Because the Obama economy was so weak all of these years, we had just artificially cheap money,” Hannity said, referring to a Fox News analysis he had seen on the cable network.

He explained that “cheap money” is from borrowing at “ridiculously low rates,” which he added must now end.

“The government has artificially, the Fed has artificially, kept the price of money down and the price of borrowing down, and now that’s going to come to an end.” Then, he declared that the plunge ― which saw stocks erase all their 2018 gains ― is actually good.

I have known only two political parties, but I can't imagine a mainstream political party that was or is more corrupt than the modern Republican Party.

and his first couple callers, who were obviously well-schooled in the subject, essentially eviscerated the bullshit that Hannity had been handed to read, where he essentially had no idea what WTF he was saying.
