    The US was the biggest economy before Reagan and his like-minded economists. It would be dumb to take credit for it.

      The US is currently doing well relative to many other major economies, including Europe. Look at the growth of the US economy vs Europe in the last decade.

      Saying the US doesn’t have good economists is just wrong. It’s one of the things they’re quite good at, for better or worse.
