The only thing Trump can get credit for is not fucking it up. The fact that even Trump can't fuck it up is a testament to how strong Obama's momentum is.

and fuck you.
When Trump leaves office all "recovery" records will be attributed to Democrats and all downward slumps attributed to Trump. The other way around for the Republicans.

Economies are far more complex than the leaders can control. The world is a big place and the world economy plays the biggest part.

Getting more manufacturing back to the West will improve the West's economy. But it will be decades before we see an effect. Just like the decades needed to see the effects of Globalisation, Immigration and now Automation.
