Exactly. Even if the impacts of the national economy were felt among the average voter most presidents shouldn’t actually influence the market much at all anyway. Trumps solitary mission in office was to loosen regulations on corpos though so he, in fact, did help the economy to the detriment of pretty much everything else. It’s an idiotic metric, countries aren’t businesses and saying “profit levels are down 18% :(” is meaningless when profit levels have been steadily ascending to disgusting heights for decades.
