    He is a politician running for reelection in a tight race. He’s going to claim credit for anything good that happened during his term that voters might possibly believe.

    That’s not even meant as a criticism; it’s just how the game is played.

        Politicians claim all sorts of things that have, at best tenuous connections to reality.

        We shouldn’t accept the claim that Biden fixed the economy, nor Trump’s claim that Biden broke the economy, nor either of their claims that they’re going to fix it next term.
