So what is actually wrong with the economy now?

Jobs are up, wages are up, markets are up, inflation is down, housing prices are down...
If you don't notice a bit of negativity in the legacy media and other deep state figures then you are not paying attention. They always seem to be "looking" for something to complain about as they repeat the term affordability over and over and over as if the term itself means more than what is actually going on with the economy. But I would challenge anyone to really tell us what is wrong right now with the economy, or more to the point, what is wrong with a better economy, less crime, less illegal immigration, and less international problems?
Oh yeah... I forgot. They have to deal with the fact that the bad orange man is taking credit.
Weird how this keeps happening.
The "target" rate of inflation the Fed is trying to get to is 2.0%.
In January, increased prices by 0.2%. Over a full 12 months, that would be 2.4%.
Also, over the past 12 months, inflation was at 2.4%. Just a bit over target. Just a scotch above the level the Fed actually wants to see.
But I thought Trump's Tariffs would kill us worse than insurrectionists killed AOC on January 6.
