The question is, what is Trump and what is Congress/competent people?
His strong arm policies and push for more oil drilling, plus the high spending is probably helping, but its like burning the forest to get farmland. It works short term but eventually the land is used up.
Also, as someone who works at a major oil and gas drilling company, the word is that wells and jobs are plentiful. Profits, less so. Because oil is too cheap. Needs to be like $100 a barrel.
Of course, having manufacturing jobs come back helps, until you find out no one wants to trade because we're assholes/too expensive.
But again, how much is him and how much is not? Not even Obama had power to affect the economy that much. Just support or not policies. Not write them.
