No, that propaganda talking point doesn't fly. Obama never reached 3% annual growth in 8 years.
Trump is currently headed for 4.1%, at least, in just over a year in office.

Under Obama, black disability and food stamp enrollment had doubled on his watch. Trump with job creation had completely reversed that in his first year. Tavis Smiley said that Obama had reversed 50 year of black progress in his term, and that if he were a white president there would have been million-man black marches on Washington.

AGAIN: If the economic numbers are the best overall since at least 2000, they are not only better than Obama's term, but better than the 8 years preceding Obama, with black numbers better than any year since 1972. Similarly Hispanics, women and youth unemployment the best in decades, FAR preceding Obama's term.
