I think that "the economy" is both too complicated and too meaningless of a concept for anyone to actually understand, so people just absorb vibes from the media. The idea that a good economy is one where you, personally, are prosperous is pretty foreign. So very little will change for most trump supporters but by next summer they will be totally convinced that the economy is better that it has ever been.

Uh unless they actually dissolve the federal reserve and go back to the gold standard like it apparently says in project 2025. In that case it will literally cause the collapse of the US empire.
