The economy, and heck the world, just lurches along at its own pace.
Specific government actions can trim off the peaks and thus fill in
the valleys a bit, or the reverse, but overall nothing they do will
stop the cyclical nature of these things.  Whoever is in power at the
time good things happen takes credit and blames the bad things on the
previous guys.  The guys out of power do the reverse.  Only partisans,
and idiots, actually believe them.  This is the 3rd or 4th stock
market "crash" I've been through (let's see, 73, 87, 00, now) and
nothing has changed.

The current administration definitely pushed to get the peak higher
and thus the resulting valley vastly lower.
