The only policy change Gingrich extracted from Bill Clinton was welfare reform.  It was good but I don't think you're going to explain all the success of the Clinton years as being a product of welfare reform.
You say Obama's regulations held the economy back.  I assume that's fixed now with Trump.  Which regulation was it?

Woah, there's a lot to unpack there. Here's a fairly comprehensive list I found of Trump actions and successes for you to celebrate like a real Republican would nitpick apart and [BLEEP] about like you always do:

• [Wall of text lifted from talk radio website]
  

Anybody, regardless of party affiliation, would celebrate economic growth. The question is how much credit should the head of government get for any of it?
You've avoided that question.
I thought you were an independent minded person. But that's a list of 71 things that you copied from a talk radio host.
One of those 71 things might answer my question.
Or maybe more than one. Or maybe none.
I am looking for something that satisfies these five conditions.

• It is a Federal regulation
  
• It was introduced or enhanced by Obama
  
• It is plausible that it slowed economic growth (in terms of wages not in terms of the stock market) during Obama's terms
  
• It was eliminated or reduced in scope by President Trump
  
• It is plausible that it has led to faster economic growth during President Trump's term
  

if there is something that meets all five of those conditions, then you can fairly say that Trump's regulations have given us economic growth that could have happened but did not happen under Obama. If there is not anything you can point to, then you're just asserting something without evidence.
