There was no " beautiful economic wave Trump rode in on". There was a stagnant economy that mostly reflected the overall 2% growth rate or less that Bush Senior had in his four years that the Dems trashed as more of a recession or depression or just a terrible thing to put the American people through. There was an inevitable recovery from the 2008 bubble burst if nothing too drastic was done to correct it. Actually, the constant QE's probably slowed down the correction. Trump's tax and regulatory policies wiped away some of the obstacles that the previous administration concocted with its regulations and stranglehold of the economy that was admired by the Press which predicted that the anemic growth and loss of jobs and large number of people needing assistance was the respectable "new normal" that would eventually be appreciated by the masses as government eased their way into a technological new age of income disparity, the elimination of the middle class, and the wonderful regulations that would assist the large numbers of people who didn't have the education and qualifications to join the smaller wave of the educated and competent few. Given the slowing down of population growth aided by the free spread of birth control, and the herding of the fewer youth into technological arenas, eventually a smaller but well regulated population would emerge--the glowing "new normal."
