They don't care because the left is not interested in prosperity; the left is interested in inequality and in the environment. Furthermore, the worse the economic situation, the more voters are likely to vote Democrat. The worse the economic situation, the greater the number of people receiving government assistance; the greater the number of people receiving government assistance, the greater the number of people who will vote Democrat.

The part I put in bold indicates that the left cares very much about bad economic news, just not in the way sane people do.

The left is the mother with Muenchausen syndrome by proxy, purposely making America deathly ill while playing the doting loving parent ostensibly dedicated to her child's well-being.
