In the Antithesis of a trump supporter but don’t make it seem like Obama couldn’t have done anything when he benefited from the low rate environment too.

Did Obama threaten to fire the head of the Fed if he raised rates? Or say anything, actually? Because I don’t remember any of that.

Because if he had, then he’d be easy to blame. If he hadn’t then it’s squarely on the fed isn’t it?

Since Trump explicitly did take action, why should he not get blamed for his part in it?
