It's Obama's legacy! It would have been twice as high if Trump hadn't ruined it!

Why the hell not? Obama got credit for saving the world economy by Bailing out all of the Rich bastards that are now spending their ill gotten billions(my tax dollars Obama squandered) to commit seditious acts against ME and My President. The storm is coming for those Bastards too!
Trump is going BUST that ASS!

Should Trump get credit for stock markets success?

He WILL be blamed if there is a crash.

It’s a fair question. Also, when do you begin giving Trump credit for the stock market and the economy? One would think the earliest that you could start giving Trump any credit for any of these things, would be post his inauguration. Then you have to ask yourself, what did Trump do to effect the Stock Market and the economy, when did he do it, and how long did it take to implement and have any effect?

The economy would have to crash first.

He said he was thinking to push for lower corporate tax rate which drove investors crazy.

Should Trump get credit for stock markets success? Nope!

Should Obama get credit for stock market success? Nope!

Stocks had been going up at same rate based on the charts.

The rate on the chart at 1:03 of the video shows about a 400 % rate increase, over the previous 2-3 years.
Is that the chart you are referring to?

Trump claiming credit for stock market rise now shows how desperate he is for some type of accomplishments as his approval rating and popularity tank among his once supporters. Fox News approval rating went 90-50% so he needs to claim credit for something that is going well at the moment even when the bs artist has nothing to do with it.

Don’t forget he claimed the market was in bubble while campaigning:

Which chart would that be? Please post it.

Oxymoron. One is not 'desperate for accomplishment' when the stock market has gone up 25% during his term.

We had a recovery under Obama, followed by very anemic growth. Investors weren’t confident, didn’t trust the government to provide a fair playground for business, and seemed focused on Washington for cues as to how to invest.

Under Trump, the confidence is through the roof, investors can’t invest fast enough, and everyone seems to expect mad growth going forward!

It’s really night and day.

Nah, he's not desperate, he's got plenty of accomplishments (81 so far). Here's a refresher:

Higher confidence in corporations due to the tax scam but lower confidence in America. It is not necessarily a good thing for the county that stocks go up. This is simply money being re-allocated. Money that could be been used to grow the economy by opening businesses instead of parking in stocks.

Just like 1999, can anyone say 1999 was good for the economy because stocks went up so much?

Just one big list of nothing. Any of his campaign promises in the list? Thought so.

Any response to trump calling it a bubble while campaigning? Thought so.

"Claim" implies 'doubt'.
There is no 'doubt'
On the one-year anniversary of Donald Trump’s win in the U.S. presidential race, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is showing its biggest post-Election Day gain in more than 70 years.

The Dow DJIA, +0.14% has advanced 28.50% since Nov. 8, 2016. That represents its best performance after a White House contest since 1945, when the blue-chip gauge was up 29.83% in a year following the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his vice president Harry S. Truman. (FDR died early his fourth term, putting Truman in the Oval Office in April 1945.)
