All I am pointing out is that traditionally a president gets credit for things that they sign and that happen under their administration.
The president is basically a coach on a sports team. If they win, the coach gets the credit. If they lose, the coach takes the blame even though the couch never plays a minute of the game.

I'm not giving trump credit for any of that and never have.
the legislative branch is responsible for legislation including legislation that impacts the economy. I don't fall for the baloney when the president signs legislation and high5s himself for signing it. that's how the system is supposed to work, the potus is NOT supposed to get in the way of legislation passing.
