The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday added another pile of good news to the mountain of data showing that the contemporary economy is the strongest in generations. Not only did employers create a staggering net 225,000 jobs last month, crushing expectations, but the labor force participation rate has reached its highest point since the recovery began after the Great Recession.

The biggest losers of all the good economic news are the Democrats vying to unseat President Trump.

Naysayers will point to the unemployment rate ticking up by 0.1 percentage points from its half-century low, but the BLS report confirms what Trump argued at this year’s State of the Union: The economy is pulling the disaffected from the sidelines, creating more jobs with higher wages for all works, but disproportionately for those who need it the most. Economists have been debating whether such sustained job growth was even possible given our current low rate of unemployment.

As with all economies, the president only deserves a portion of the credit and a portion of the blame, but, three years into his administration, it’s clear that Trump is just as responsible for one of the longest bull markets and tightest labor markets in history, just as much as Barack Obama was for the slowest economic recovery in nearly a century.

What Trump described as a “blue-collar boom” is making it difficult for Democrats to run their campaigns on economic anxiety or to justify their massive spending proposals.

The economy’s continued gains especially harm the more socialist and revolutionary messages of Bernie Sanders, the front-runner, and his Senate colleague, Elizabeth Warren. Their campaigns are based on the premise that there must be significant structural change to fix an economy that's rigged against working people. The United States has resisted socialism for nearly 250 years, and it's doubtful that the public will embrace it amid a period of robust and broadly shared prosperity.

And they aren’t the only ones harmed politically by the nation's economic success. It also poses a threat to Joe Biden and the others running as the relative centrists in the race because they are also pushing the idea of a middle-class squeeze.

"The middle class is getting killed; the middle class is getting crushed," Biden has argued. It's a tough sell, given that all objective metrics suggest that the middle class is doing better now than it ever did under Obama. Employment, median household income, and real disposable household income are all better today, and, not only are real wages growing for the first time in a decade, they’re disproportionately growing for low-income workers. As the BLS report notes, our labor force participation rate has risen as a result of our tight job market leading to increased wages.

The economy is also an area in which voters don’t need to rely on outside data. They can vote based on their own lived experiences. On that front, Gallup found that 59% of people say they're better off financially than one year ago, and 74% say they'll be better off financially one year from now, both record numbers. And it’s not just Trump fans who are fond of the economy. A staggering 3-in-5 Democrats also say they are optimistic in their personal financial prospects.

"Bernie bros" may want to eat the rich, but, in a time of prosperity for the masses, the public is not likely to have such an appetite. Biden may want to return to the status quo of the Obama era, but the real question of 2020 is whether anyone else does.
