Where I work, we have a lot of business-owners and managers coming in to buy lighting stuff. One guy came in today, to buy some lamps for his convenience store, and remarked about the stock market being up. "That's all Trump," he said. About an hour later, a guy who has a Dairy Queen was talking about how business had been good lately, and he said, "You know that's all Trump."
It reminds me of the period, early last year, when customers kept saying, "if we can get Trump in there..."
I don't know how much credit should go to Trump (maybe all of it or none of it, for all I know), but I do find it interesting that people are saying these things. I also wonder to what extent any upturn in business is due merely to the general impression (aside from actual policies or proposals) that the president is pro-business, and has promised to slash regulations and taxes.
In other news, I'm hearing that Gander Mountain is slated to declare bankruptcy. I bet they could really use some Obama, right now.
