We're not blaming the country's entire decline on Trump, just the recent acceleration of the decline. A country can't be brought as low as this in less than a decade unless it was already pretty low to begin with, but when a new factor causes an existing problem to accelerate, then that variable can certainly be blamed for the acceleration, along with the other variables that also play into the problem as a whole.
Trump is to blame for our country's decline, and so are republicans as a whole, and so are billionaires, and so are a bunch of other groups of people and many other variables.
