Obama wasn’t responsible for the first 5 years or so after his election because we were living out the consequences of Bush’s policies. Now we’re seeing what Obama did for the economy.
Basically, brace yourself.
There is some inertia but I disagree with your timeframe. Some economic indicators like consumer confidence change almost instantly and we saw exactly that when Trump got elected:

The positive sentiment then manifests as increased spending, then hiring, investment in plant and then profits etc. I believe it is apparent which way the cruise liner is turning fairly quickly. My suspicion is you chose 5 years because that is how long - roughly - it took Obama to turn the economy which conveniently supports your ideological position...
And let's see where the money from the largest corporate tax cut in US history went? We already know the answer.

Trump after Trump. Donald Trump Jr and Ivanka are riding high for 2024. Especially DTJ. Maybe his sister will be for 2032. That could take America all the way to 2040 with Trumps in the Oval Office.
President Donald Trump Jr.
The initials, DTJ, rhyme with JFK. Since the current president is just like Abraham Lincoln, maybe the next one could be just like Kennedy.
Only stupid people don't like Abraham Lincoln and JFK. What's your problem?
Donald Trump Jr and Ivanka Trump are among Republican voters’ top picks for the GOP presidential nomination in 2024, according to a new poll.
Barron won't be quite old enough by 2040 but there is still Eric Trump to fill in until he is.

There's a never ending supply of that alright. You can follow some of it on Right Wing Watch

Mathew 7 I Never Knew You 21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Iran is currently fighting their "installed" regime for FREEDOM. The real truth, people have power. Go up and ask them. At some point, the military generals will act with the will of the people just because their soldiers are the same people and have no choice. We stand with you. We are closely monitoring the situation. Be safe, God bless.

Lol what a strange location for a rally. That part of New Jersey is essentially unpopulated in January. Trump should let people crash in his hotels in AC since nobody is using them
If you’re serious, I’d go .

Tax cuts and jobs act.
When you see something like that, know that the 'jobs' word is the public expression of the private position, 'profits'.
Tax cuts and profits act. Yep, that makes perfect sense now.
Now I want to Trump hammered hard with this. Bernie Sanders has all this money, make the hard hitting ads with this shit right in your face. Trump said. Trump said 'this wouldn't happen if I was president'. He said.
That's why a bunch of people voted for him. Because he said this stuff wouldn't happen. But it's happening. So is the golf. He said he wouldn't do that either. He said. But he is. Lots.
He said "Mexico would pay for the wall". He said. He made you repeat it back to him. He said it over and over again. So why is he taking money from the military to build the wall? Is the American military Mexican?
When pressed on this awhile ago he gave some nonsense answer that Mexico is paying for it. Indirectly. Through his 'deals'. Or something.
Fuck man, hammer this idiot. It's easy. He's a lying, name calling, sleazy old man. And that's all he is.

You act like this is a joke. It’s already happening and it’s already happened. The pacific islands and atolls are vanishing. Countries like Bangladesh are losing land area rapidly. Islands in the Chesapeake that have been populated for centuries are almost gone.

[Superfluous insult removed]Islands have been disappearing and reappearing since the dawn of time. Earth goes through natural changes and periods of cooling and heating.
Your climate alarmist doomsday friends have been 100% wrong, on every single one of their climate alarmist predictions, since the 1960s. You have not a single leg to stand on. No serious scientist on Earth believes there will be a mass extinction due to climate in any near future. Nor is there ANY solid evidence at all that humans are the main cause. Or that we can do anything about it. US leads the world on reducing emissions. (Despite leaving BS climate accord) India and China are the biggest producers of pollution and emissions globally, by far.. go ahead and get them to stop. lol..
Using your logic... if Global Warming is such a problem, why the fuck are people freezing to death in Pakistan from record colds? https://www.geo.tv/latest/267237-83-dead-as-severe-cold-grips-pakistan
Why are new islands appearing? https://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2017/06/28/new-island-north-carolina-jnd-orig-vstop.cnn

"Air pollution may obliterate the sun and cause a new ice age in the first third of the next century if the population continues to grow and the Earth's resources are consumed at the present rate. The demands for cooling water will boil dry the entire flow of the rivers and streams of the continental US" - James Lodge Jr: Ice age by 2000; 1970
"In the next 50 years. the fine dust man constantly puts into the atmosphere by fossil fuel burning could screen out so much sunlight that the average temperature could drop by six degrees. If sustained over several year. such a temperature decrease could be sufficient to trigger an Ice age!" - Dr S. I Rasool, 1971
“Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.” - 1979, George Wald

"MALDIVES: A gradual rise in average sea level is threatening to completely cover this Indian Ocean nation of 1196 small islands within the next 30 years. According to authorities. But the end of the Maldives and its 200,000 people could come sooner if drinking water supplies dry up by 1992, as predicted." - Canberray Times, Sept 26 1988
"A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea level if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000" - AP news, June 30 1989

“I think we have a very brief window of opportunity to deal with climate change ... no longer than a decade, at the most,” - NBC News, September 14th, 2006
"Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past. Britain's winter ends tomorrow with further indications of a striking environmental change: snow is starting to disappear from our lives. According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become "a very rare and exciting event", "Children just aren't going to know what snow is" - The independent, March 20 2000
"Climate change over the next 20 years could results in a global catastrophe costing millions of lives in wars and natural disasters. Major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged into a "Siberian" climate by 2020. Nuclear conflict, mega-droughts, famine and widespread rioting will erupt across the world." - The Guardian, Feb 21 2004
“If there's no action before 2012, that's too late. What we do in the next two to three years will determine our future. This is the defining moment." - Rajendra Pachauri, November 17th, 2007
“Politicians and corporations have been ignoring the issue for decades, to the point that unless drastic measures to reduce greenhouse gases are taken within the next 10 years, the world will reach a point of no return” - Al Gore, 2007
"The polar ice caps will be completely ice free within 5 years" - Al Gore, 2008
"Within 5 to 10 years, the Arctic will be completely free of sea ice in the summer" - Dr. Hansen - June 24 2008
“World leaders have 50 days to save the Earth from irreversible global warming and catastrophe.” - Gordon Brown, Former UK Prime Minister, October 19th, 2009
"Only 500 days remain to avoid complete climate chaos" - Laurent Fabius, 2014
"The world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change" - AOC, 2019
"We have less than 8 years to save the planet" - Great Thunberg, 2020
"We're done in 4 years if we don't fix climate change!" - Michael Moore, 2020
According to the "experts", life on Earth should have been totally annihilated like 40 years ago.
Climate related death, are at all time historic lows, WHILE the population has increased over 4x
