Except he's been your President for more than 15 months, Z.
Overall negative?

All gains made under the Orange Con man's term are gone.
Mid Feb DOW was over 30K!
The next 5 weeks DOW dropped to > 19K, erasing all Don the Con's gains!!! (aka signaling a severe recession!!!)
The 3 recent good days the DOW went up but is nowhere near 30K+
Some FACTS:
Over the last four years of Obama’s Presidency the Dow reached 118 new highs and finished at 19,732. Another interesting statistic is that the Dow surged 11,783 points while Obama was in office rising from 7,949 the day of his inauguration to 19,732, a 148% increase over the eight years. It also rose by 13,185 points from its March 2009 low.
Stock market under Trump
When Trump entered office he benefited from an economy that was in its eighth year of growth, a stock market that had been consolidating for about two years and was close to an all-time high. Making new highs is much easier in this situation vs. the one that greeted Obama when he took office.
