Notice he never gives any credit for the expanding and fully recovered economy, to himself, he always, always gives credit only to other people, to the people and citizens of the country he loves.

Hell, yes:

"Now, sometimes, because the news cycle is so quick, we forget how all this came about and the debates that we had last year, or two years, or four years, or six years ago.
