Well, in the long run it did "work". But it was a shitty liberal solution by a liberal president, not sure why anyone is surprised.
That said, he became president as the entire world economy was imploding. I would wager that anyone in the position would have presided over the drop in home ownership you referred to. It's not really fair to put any kind of blame on him.
Except maybe Bernie, or another actual socialist that would have just paid off people's shitty mortgages rather than bail out banks. But shit, we can't even get student loans forgiven, people in this country would have revolted if they saw black people being "given free homes," while they still have to pay their mortgage. Literally revolted.
Look at all the graphs for the other races linked on that page. They all follow the same curve. Homeownership across the board followed that curve, not just for black Americans. You have an obvious agenda.
It is to your claim that he specifically failed black americans.
And it's also your move to prove that Obamas policies were actually the issue, because similar things happened all over the world, and a government can only do so much.
This is a classic "blame the Democrats for the mess created by Republicans" right wing tactic. Republicans shit their diapers, then get voted out, then immediately start complaining that it smells awful and why would the Democrats do this
He took on after 8 years of deregulation and bad policies set the economy up for an unsustainably driven bubble followed by the inevitable pop. Just like the fed printing more money than has ever been printed before during Trump's rule, followed by...surprise! Inflation!
