One suspects that people who blame Trump for that are just looking for anything to blame on him. And linking to the Bloomberg interview, with that facile, biased, anti-Trump pundit, does not constitute proof. If Trump had not been around, the rate hikes by the Fed would also have pushed the market down.

Those trade tariff's are a very bad thing. Even if u can't prove it caused some stock market decline u can be about 100% sure it will cause more inflation and higher prices.

So we change the subject with another reason to bash Trump since the tariff thing did not exist when the thread started. Yes, the tariffs might cause some disruption but Trump is dead-on right because a whole lot of other countries have been freeloading on the USA. So a change had to come evenually and Trump does not waste time.

don't agree with change had to come even if u say other countries freeloading. Even if true it is better to keep things as have been. The only thing that will happen ,or maybe already has, is higher prices and likely more inflation and i don't want to pay higher prices nor have more inflation and don't think much of anyone else does either.

President Trump : a few years ago he brought up and had a " School " or college he was promoting which shows about the same sincerity or personal integrity, worthiness, as those advertisers such as infomercials on tv with 'get rich quick ' schemes such as flipping houses. Bad attitude.
