                   THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOT STUPID

  (Mr. WRIGHT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. WRIGHT. Mr. Speaker, so now that the Trump economy is soaring and 
setting job growth records following the one-two punch of regulatory 
reform and tax cuts, some of my Democrat colleagues want to give Barack 
Obama the credit.
  Well, this is laughable. This was the President who refused to accept 
responsibility for anything that went wrong for 8 years, instead 
blaming it on President George W. Bush. Remember?
  Not anemic job growth, government overreach, doubling the national 
debt, Benghazi, and incompetent foreign policy. Now they want to take 
credit for the great things happening in this country 28 months into 
the Trump Presidency.
  Sorry, you don't get to do that.
  This is an outrage. It is wrong; it is demonstrably false; and it 
won't work. The American people are not stupid.
