I have read somewhere that experts say The President of the United States does not have much power over the stock market or the economy in general. Though with Trump it seems like his tweets and economic viewpoints have had a big impact on both the economy and the stock market.
Things Trump has done that has impacted the economy and stock market, that can be viewed as both positive and negative:
Tariffs and the Trade War with China
A large number of deportations of immigrants which impacts the workforce
NAFTA
Tweets about the Federal Reserve (Pressure on them to stop raising interest rates.)
Promoted and Signed the Tax Cut Bill
High Deficit and Federal Spending
Government Regulations rollback
Bad relationship with other foreign leaders and how his decisions impact their economies and stock market
(To me Trump has had an incredible impact on the economy and stock market.)

Who are these experts ? Are they the same ones that are telling us that Obama is responsible for the upswing in the market since Trump took office? (well not lately but it will bounce back)... Oh wait are those experts telling us that or is that Obama himself?
Some of those things you listed OP are actually positives for America and do not effect the stock market one way or another. I think you might be giving Trump too much credit.

Trump is a very stupid man who has managed to lose more money than he has made and who allows his ego to rule him. Trump blurts out stupid things and hurts himself and others, he is not very smart, more lucky to be born to a super rich and evil dad and lucky to come of age at a time where making money in NY RE was easier than losing it.... Everyone who invested in those decades made massive multiplies that have not been possible for decades...
Trump has indeed influenced the markets. He has declared he would drop oversights, reduce regulations, and of course his mighty tax scam that allowed the uber wealthy to get away with hundreds of billions in taxes while leaving the fed defunded .....
Trump is scum, he will go down in US history as one of the worst leaders ever. He is already despised around the globe and thought of as a complete blowhard buffoon... Instead of becoming royality through holding the oval office he has become an even bigger laughing stock , no longer is it just New Yorkers and Americans who think him a fool, now the entire world does.

It is as if you are completely unaware of the record highs in the market when Obama was in office. Or that Trump himself took great pains to take full credit for the record highs, while totally ignoring how the 7 year run up prior to his arrival made those records possible. And of course as Trump should have been aware when you take credit for the highs you then own the drop.
As the left and media chronically report, everything positive (market, employment, trade, etc) is automatically attributed to Obama, while everything negative is entirely Trump's responsibility ... and should be thoroughly investigated.

Yeah that's it alright.
