Neither of those are "big problems." The US was going gangbusters, from an economic perspective.

The stock market was going gangbusters. Inflation and job market have been not so great the past few years.
And what makes you feel that inflation & job market are about to head in a better direction?
Exactly. Tariffs are inherently inflationary, and make the economy less efficient which lowers wages, since workers will now be moved to less productive jobs. And unemployment has been low, so this isn't about lowering unemployment either...
