So let me get this straight.
GDP includes govt spending, government spending doesn't produce anything material in the economy (just shuffles money around after they steal it from the citizens), GDP stays in the okay range because of this even though our economy under the surface is fucked, the stock market responds well to good GDP numbers and normies think everything is okay because stocks are going up.
Then, Trump and company shut off the govt spending and start getting real companies to produce real things and GDP goes down because of no more govt spending and the lag before the things get produced. This happens even though the govt never produced anything in the first place. This then causes the stock market to respond negatively because of some some retarded definition of a recession (that's based off a retarded definition of GDP) even though all of the things that are happening are effectively good for the economy. Normies see the market go down so they get freaked out and cause the whole thing to worsen because they don't understand basic economics and the media is gaslighting them to make Trump look bad.
This whole system is fucking retarded.
