Unlike Obama, who basically managed the equivalent of turning around an ocean liner within 50 feet of Niagara Falls.

Or FDR - who basically took said ocean liner as it was plunging to its doom, and pulled it back to safety.

Both, of course, were preceded by self-righteous (and useless) GOP presidents.
