Could it be that the strong market was artificially high, due to tax cuts and stock buybacks? Stock “buybacks” were considered a form of stock price manipulation and were illegal before 1982, when Reagan Republicans changed the rules. So if you measure the success of your administration on the stock market alone, why not dabble in price manipulation… Like the Bush/Cheney administration, Trump will dismiss concerns over the National debt to supply Wall Street with tax cuts, deregulation at the price of safety and the future of the environment, in order to keep the house of cards standing until it falls from its own unstable design.
