While that's true, Obama had zero interest rates for about 6 years. Obama threw the potatoe in the boiler then through it on Trump's lap. Trump doesn't want to deal with it, he wants to get relected. Obama created the mother of all bubbles, Trump inflated it with the tax cuts.

Obama inherited the recession though, did he not? Low interest rates are a fantastic strategy for exiting out of a recession, which can take years.  
  
 Although, true, you could say that towards the end, Obama could have advised to raise interest rates. But I'd argue it's more important now than it was then.
