The media's in "all hands on deck" panic mode with the election coming up in less than a month. The numbers keep getting worse for the Harris-Walz campaign which means the Dem/media gaslighting efforts have shifted into overdrive.
One outlet leading the way in trying to get everybody to join them in praising the Biden-Harris economic utopia is the Associated Press, but they've been outdone by Politico.
Get a load of this assessment of the economy vs. what voters haven't yet "noticed":
Harris is riding a dream economy into the election. It may be too late for voters to notice. https://t.co/52cgjsOk4I

Hey Politico, it's not easy for a lot of people to notice something that isn't happening.
The latest numbers, released on Thursday, add to a solid economic picture that’s coming together just weeks before the 2024 election. The question now is whether it’s too late for Vice President Kamala Harris to get credit for it.
[...]
Still, according to a NYT/Siena poll, voters still mostly rate the economy as fair or poor. And while Harris has been closing the gap with Trump on who voters trust on the economy, she still trails him, according to the latest polling from Gallup.
Basically Politico and others in the media are still taking the "no, it must be the people who are mistaken about the economy" approach.
Once again, we voters are just too stupid to notice that the economy is really great. https://t.co/9Ebf0brIsP

We were hoping for something a little dreamier from a "dream economy":
A dream economy?

You guys and gals have really outdone yourselves. Take a bow and enjoy the ratio. https://t.co/t4WFwwEqXB
Their propaganda isn’t even good anymore. https://t.co/mItM7VoDX5

Calling this the "dream economy" when people are struggling to make ends meet because of inflation is the kind of rhetoric that will help her lose. https://t.co/7Ji3nXt92f

A lot of these media assessments of the economy are so ridiculous they could be featured in Trump ads.
