Rich Baris talked about this. A lot of manufacturers are not confident about this economy and because of that there is less production, which in turn raises the prices of materials, which in turn slows down housing, which in turn affects jobs, which in turn affects the economy in general and it just spirals out of control. Thats why Trump was so effective. He was practically a cheerleader for the American economy. He helped bring it back, but now it's just high taxes and bullshit spending plans.

And people applaud it because as elites they will not be affected by bad policies, only working class people will.
