Submitted for your consideration, two official reports from different planets.
On one planet there is confidence to spare.

U.S. consumer confidence rose more than expected in October to the highest in almost 17 years as Americans grew more confident about the economy and job market, according to figures Tuesday from the New York-based Conference Board.
...The University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment index climbed in October to the strongest since the start of 2004, while the Bloomberg Consumer Comfort Index is near the highest level of the expansion.
The share of respondents who say jobs are plentiful rose to 36.3 percent, the most since June 2001, while people reporting good business conditions increased to 34.5 percent, matching the highest since 2001.

Everything is awesome, and Gallup largely confirms this.

What more needs to be said?
Oh, yeah. There is just one tiny, little thing to mention:

Everything is terrible and has literally never been worse.

Almost two-thirds of Americans, or 63 percent, report being stressed about the future of the nation, according to the American Psychological Association’s Eleventh Stress in America survey, conducted in August and released on Wednesday. This worry about the fate of the union tops longstanding stressors such as money (62 percent) and work (61 percent) and also cuts across political proclivities. However, a significantly larger proportion of Democrats (73 percent) reported feeling stress than independents (59 percent) and Republicans (56 percent).
...A majority of the more than 3,400 Americans polled, 59 percent, said “they consider this to be the lowest point in our nation’s history that they can remember.” That sentiment spanned generations, including those that lived through World War II, the Vietnam War, and the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11.

The country is headed for a cliff and we are all doomed. Nothing could be more clear.
This is backed up by another survey.

Just 24 percent of Americans believe the country is heading in the right direction after a tumultuous stretch for President Donald Trump that included the threat of war with North Korea, stormy complaints about hurricane relief and Trump's equivocating about white supremacists. That's a 10-point drop since June, according to a poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
The decline in optimism about the nation's trajectory is particularly pronounced among Republicans. In June, 60 percent of Republicans said the country was headed in the right direction; now it's just 44 percent.

So, everything is awesome and things have never been worse.
Got it? Nothing more needs to be said.

Well, just one thing: you can't trust the numbers.

The estimate of potential GDP suggests the economy is running above potential. The unemployment rate, at 4.2 percent, is lower than what the Federal Reserve considers full employment. Financial conditions as seen via risk premiums in financial markets are very loose. All of this suggests a mix of fiscal and monetary policy should be biased toward slowing the economy, perhaps significantly, in 2018.
But for those indicators to point toward slowing, when other markers show such problems, reveals how damaged the economy has become during and after the recession. Labor-force participation, even adjusted for demographics, remains lower than it has been in the past, suggesting a lot of workers have left the labor force without any explanation that should comfort policymakers. Housing construction and activity remains well below any historical level considered normal...
So we're left with two possibilities. Perhaps "the economy is bad" -- already at its potential even while labor-force participation and housing activity are well below the levels we're used to historically. Or perhaps the data is bad, and we're stumbling in the dark as we try to estimate full employment and the economy's potential.

There is a third possibility
Perhaps "the economy is bad" AND the data is bad.
That's how I'd vote.
