Trump takes credit for what ppl see as good, blames others for what's failing. Now, what created this payday bonanza just in time? Was it just finally recovering from Bush's demolition job after 8 years, or something more profound?

Correlation is not causation.

Correlation is not causation. The article contains no evidence or even an attempt at a convincing argument that Trump's policies are the reason for the good things Smith sees. It may or may not be true but I'd need more than just x and y happened at the same time. I need an explanation why x led to y.
