Leftists have been saying for literal decades how the modern measures of economic outlook -unemployment, total job numbers, stock market profitability, ect - are designed to misrepresent or ignore the actual economic outlook of working-class americans.

It's crazy to me that now that a growing portion of the public are seeing the misalignment of those measures, it's suddenly the fault of leftists that the democratic party is loosing support because 'we're being uncharitable to Biden's achievements'.

Democrats are pointing the metrics republicans have been using for 50 years to advocate for their reactionary policy and saying to moderate republicans 'look! we're working toward the same goals!', and yet somehow leftists are supposed to give democrats credit for working within the limits of those metrics that are designed to undermine working-class interests?
