I think this belongs in the "conspiracy theory" section.
For any of this to be remotely factual / possible, one would need to proceed from the assumption that a company would defer current quarter sales and delay a product launch for some reason other than maximizing value for shareholders. That would mean that the Board of Directors would need to be complicit with the decision to delay the product as well.
Also, whether the economy grows at 2%, 2.33% or 2.8% is irrelevant. Any economic growth that is insufficient to create jobs and lower unemployment (which GDP growth in the 2 - 3% range probably won't do) is not going to matter to the voters. The average voter doesn't know or care what the projected or actual GDP growth rate is. They just care about their prospects for employment and whether they can feed their family.
