Drumpf is the only pos that has fucked up this badly.Trump is likely the only President who understands economics.
Unlike former presidents, Trump is more active in the economy, though not active in your lives.
Trump is more engaged in the economy than any president in my lifetime.
He isn't interested in activism, expansion of police power, of overseas adventures or getting involved in which bathroom people pee in. His big focus has been the economy. He also deemed the economy part and parcel of defending your southern border and confronting China.
As such, he is more involved openly. He demands lower interest rates and calls out the Fed when they are high, he pushes for foreign countries to purchase more American and calls them out when they unfairly tariff you. He alters trade deals and promotes American technology, unlike any other president.
In theory, less of presidents involvement is good. In Trumps case, he's the biggest cheerleader and demands fairness, hitting communists with tariffs and walking the walk. This helps farmers, manufacturers and general public sentiment and confidence. They believe he will do what he says and companies hire.
So, yes, Trump IS responsible for some of the success. If they fudge the numbers that's a problem. I can tell you though that Canada gained jobs too, and we are a useless economy where our best talent is in your country.
He's also focused on jobs and tells his economic team "focus on jobs, this is how the economy will win", and then let's them do it. He doesn't pick guys to fit a quota, he wants smart, business leaders. He will then do the rest on a macro level and in his vocal demands for all to hear.
