He's fond of posting threads like this, being debunked, and then reposting almost the same thing later as if the original thread never existed, isn't he?

The article you cited doesn't say that "Obama has 2 quarters in 2014 with 5% GDP growth and this is the first quarter that Trump topped 3%," Lush.

Here's what it says: Now that they have their tax cut safely in hand, corporate America has apparently gotten fed up with Donald Trump. Even the US Chamber of Commerce, which has become a reliably hyper-Republican operation over the past couple of decades under its firebrand conservative leader, Tom Donohue, has declared war on Trump. “The administration’s new tariffs threaten to spark a global trade war,” blares a headline on the Chamber’s website today:

Tariffs imposed by the United States are nothing more than a tax increase on American consumers and businesses–including manufacturers, farmers, and technology companies–who will all pay more for commonly used products and materials.

A tax increase! Them’s fighting words! And the site has a helpful interactive map so you can see just how badly Trump’s tariffs will affect your state. Trump hasn’t responded with a devastating tweet yet, but I’m sure he will eventually. At this point, though, China has retaliated against Trump. Canada has retaliated against Trump. Europe has retaliated against Trump. And now the Chamber of Commerce has retaliated against Trump. The battle is finally fully engaged.

Why is 4.1 growth great today but was terrible when Obama was president?

Because Obama never achieved 4.1% GDP growth you dumbass. No one ever claimed it was terrible under Obama. Unless of course you have a specific citation in lieu of STRAWMEN.

With Thursday’s final revision of fourth-quarter GDP growth to 2.1 percent from its previous 1.9 percent level, President Obama is the only president since Herbert Hoover to not have guided the US economy to 3 percent growth in any year he was in office.

The US economy grew 1.6 percent in 2016 from the previous years, according to the Commerce Department, which tracks GDP.

Obama’s best year, as far as growing the economy, was 2015 when it grew 2.6 percent from 2014 — after growing 2.4 percent that year from 2013.

Has that maxim flipped?

Trump has never reached 3% annual GDP.

That is true. trump got a quarter over 4. However in the last 18 months of Obama's term, he had 4 of them. In Obamas comparable time, his rate is higher than Trumps. I read that due to trumps tariffs, lots of companies are spending like crazy stacking up. They said that added 1 percent. We will see pretty soon if daffy maintains it,] I doubt it. Tariffs will hacve their impact.
