This article is saying the slowdown started as early as a year ago. That of course opens up the discussion of whether this new revision is political cover for the current administration since they just removed the BLS head.

I think its probably a lot more complicated than that. I think this started decades ago and we are at a point of pivot. I couldn't tell you where we are pivoting to but I'm not really reassured by the obsessive metricization(?) of our economy, from the stock market to inflation numbers to jobs numbers.
The entire world is militarizing... so... I'm sure that's reassuring.

The American economy (and society) were so great it took decades of bipartisan work for the self destruction to become evident.

One can argue that we're only seeing the beginning of the destruction. The economic policies of this administration could take years to be fully realized. That also means that, unfortunately, it will take years to repair the damage.

If you're old enough to be reading this comment today, it's unlikely that the full damage will be repaired in your lifetime.
