The economy is good and we have this:
* Wages are staying ahead of inflation
* Low Unemployment
* Wall street is doing good
But, for not 5% "top" people, the economy looks terrible because:
* They see food, gas, housing and interest rates raising a lot.
* Even though their wages are ahead of inflation, they do not know or understand this. Their bank accounts may be increasing, but they cannot and will not do 1+1. It is much easier to see raising costs than raising savings.
* Job security is non-existent. Even though you may have a decent job and if you get laid you can find a new job relatively quickly. People do not feel secure and are afraid of loosing work, so they may be putting in extra hours to avoid that, thus no free time.
* Billionaires, they are always hearing about these people and that makes them feel even worse.
The Democrats are ignoring that and have no response to it. The GOP is great at pushing the bad economy and hate towards immigrants. So, when people feel insecure, they are easily pushed into the MAGA state many people are in.
