rooster, you know Trump does not own America's current economic performance.

"The man just knows what he's doing. he said he would get the economy rolling and he did."

No one should have to tell you that again, yet hookrider did ..

You have been told you are wrong before

rooster, wrong. Trump lags behind his predecessors on economic growth
[...]
The Early Economic Records of Presidents from Kennedy to Trump
President GDP Business Investment Investment in Equipment
Kennedy 7.0% 8.3% 14.2%
Johnson 6.3% 10.7% 11.9%
Nixon 0.0% -1.6% -0.3%
Carter 2.7% 8.2% 12.2%
Reagan -2.1% 3.0% -3.0%
Bush-1 2.6% 0.5% -0.2%
Clinton 3.5% 7.7% 13.5%
Bush-2 1.1% -4.7% -6.1%
Obama 2.2% 1.5% 14.7%
Trump 2.6% 5.9% 9.0%

Source: Bureau of Economic Analysis. These measures represent annual growth rates of real GDP, business fixed investment,
and investment in equipment over the three quarters from each president’s third, fourth and fifth quarters in office.

So, Trump devoted much of his first six months in office to rolling back regulations and much of the next months on his single major legislative achievement, sharp reductions in taxes. The table above shows what has happened to business investment generally and to new investments in equipment over the last three quarters, again compared to the results in comparable periods under his predecessors .. https://www.bea.gov/iTable/iTable.cfm?reqid=19&step=3&isuri=1&1910=x&0=-99&1921=survey&1903=141&1904=1948&1905=2018&1906=q&1911=0#reqid=19&step=3&isuri=1&1910=x&0=-99&1921=survey&1903=141&1904=1948&1905=2018&1906=q&1911=0 . On overall business investment, Trump’s record again beats the four presidents who faced recessions [that emphasis added here] in their first year in office (Obama, Bush-2, Reagan and Nixon), plus Bush-1)—hardly a heavy lift—and trails his four other predecessors (Clinton, Carter, LBJ and JFK). On investment in equipment, the comparisons are the same except here he trails Obama as well the four other Democratic presidents since 1960.

So now we all know you know, when you say if again it would be fair to others to see it as a lie on your part. Just sayin'.

His administration has some idea on the foreign policy front, but Trump obviously does not know
what he's doing in any area except that he is building his, and others in his family's, wealth.

Sod knows what he's doing to his family's mental health.
