What Did Bill Clinton Say About the Economy In the Last 8 years?

 

 

 

Bill Clinton, March 2016, in Spokane, Washington:

 

“…if you believe we’ve finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us and the seven years before that when we were practicing trickle-down economics and no regulation in Washington…”

 

 

Bill Clinton, April 2016, Indianapolis, Indiana:

 

“But the problem is, 80 percent of the American people are still living on what they were living on the day before the [2008 financial] crash. And about half the American people, after you adjust for inflation, are living on what they were living on the last day I was president 15 years ago. So that‘s what’s the matter.”
