To be honest, the claim of any influence of a president's policy on the economy is tenuous, although the bailouts at the beginning of Obama's first term may be one of the exceptions. The only real fault you can find with Trump so far is how he's constantly claiming positive news from Wall Street and economic indicators as his successes. Since he started with almost full employment, he's almost assured to end his first term with a net growth in unemployment. Establishing the idea of being measured by those numbers is almost comically bad strategy. But I guess he and his sycophants will just go back to claiming that the statistics are manipulated.
