I suppose those voters don't have to wait for too long: the economy is going to start doing great for them again at noon on January 20, 2025.

You are not wrong. By February 2025, 90% of Republicans will start believing that the economy is thriving.

If this belief is strong enough, they would act on it. The fact that they act means the economy starts rolling, and produce the type of thriving that they come to believe! Ala, a self-fulfilling prophesy.
Therefore, it's important to find out why people believe things, despite being contrary to empirical evidence.
