It's remarkable how much of a potemkin village the current situation is.
Nothing is being build or growing that's why inflation is so low. With the tarriffs and defense spending acting as a redistribution of wealth from the outskirts of the empire towards the United States. Cabinet secretaries aren't really enacting any new policies because Trump decides everything. The Republicans in the House and Senate just keep the train rolling as is.
Real economic indicators like house ownership or consumer spending aren't going up.
It's way different from 2016 - 2018 when Trump actually gave the economy a significant boost with deregulation and tax cuts.
