Did The Hill really ask why Americans feel so negative about the economy?
Yes. Yes they did.
Gosh, while we're certainly not experts we're pretty sure people don't just 'feel' negative about the economy, they're living in it, experiencing it every day. They KNOW it sucks and living in a sucky economy can make someone feel negative.
All caught up?

From The Hill:
Americans are not feeling good about the state of the economy, and it’s a big problem for President Biden.
Even as numerous indicators suggest the U.S. economy is doing remarkably well in the postpandemic era, poll after poll has shown consumers don’t view the economy in the same light.
Nearly 3 in 5 Americans in a recent Harris poll said the U.S. is in a recession, despite a record number of new jobs added under Biden and the longest stretch of unemployment below 4 percent since the 1960s.
Why don't they just admit this is an ad for Sleepy Joe and be done with it?
Because I spent 75$ at the grocery store yesterday and I only filled one bag. That's why.

But everything is better! The Hill says so!
Heh.
Because they can't afford food, rent, and gas

Banks closing, restaurants closing, bankruptcies skyrocketing, taxes increasing, average American with more debt/less savings, groceries, gas…shall I go on?

Because the metrics used to get the official numbers don't genuinely reflect the day-to-day reality of most Americans.

Prices are, in fact, high.
Crazy talk!
BECAUSE WE LIVE IN REALITY!
