...what would Trump say if he ran for reelection?  Would he deny that it is happening?

Of course, as we all know, capitalism shares many elements with Darwinian evolution, a somewhat mindless process of mostly bottom-up "design".  Now, if Trump's travel ban, which is already having an impact on the airline industry, should cause a cascade of events that leads to the entire economy faltering, what will be The Donald's excuse?  If you are one of the newly unemployed, how will you react to the Media's being portrayed as "liars"?

He would blame it on Obama and obstructionist democrats, plus the media, of course. His usual suspects. He might blame some other foreign powers, Mexico, China. Basically, he'll deflect everywhere and take zero responsibilty, just like he does for all his failures.

He'd say Americans never had it better, and then stop talking to any media that published the truth.

Replace if there would with there will be. And then we are talking. He's the king of deregulation and that certainly leads to the next bubble exploding.

Well, allrighty then. Make more rooms for titles in the future.

I suppose he would take ownership of it and look for ways to improve our situation.

Perhaps even donate his personal fortune to feed the hungry.
