Board Trump haters

Exactly the opposite. Government spending and manipulating the markets instead of letting them work (i.e. setting interest rates) are the main culprits for the haves and have nots. Our economy was working for everyone (all classes, races, etc.) in early 2020 - lower taxes, minimum regulation, America first policies.

Furthermore, the supply issues that more and more are explaining the jump in prices were largely a function of artificial shutdowns (schools closed, workers unnecessarily quarantining for three weeks, blue states shutting down production and limiting the labor pool) - all instituted by socialist-style government mandates.

There is a reason the United States emerged as the world power. Capitalism and innovation works. Get out of the way government.

You should probably thank Obama for Trumps good fortunes.

1. BLS's own website reports the downward revision trend. Why don't other outlets cover this? Great question.

Additionally,


2. I think you need to re-read the Barron's article, numbers were revised up 116k in Nov/Dec (2023 wasn't revised up 300K). There was still an average downward revision in '23.

3. Why were they revised up? Per your article:



4. Most of this was included in the info I shared on this topic, previously.

I can't remember where I read it but ADP numbers show a pretty stead drop in jobs over the last 12 months. I will have to look for it tonight.
 
Since you posted this 2x now, it deserves a response.

- While native and foreign born employment may have increased and declined, it's not at the expense of one versus the other. It's also more that the native born population is getting older and retiring, while the foreign born population is younger.

- Prime employment (age 25-54) is above pre-pandemic highs and near records of 80%+

- Hours fell slightly in Jan 2024, but wages per hour are up, so net/net people still made more money, but it could be a concern in the future or it could be a one off. Something to watch.

- Also, people are leaving the workforce because America is aging and many people decided after COVID just to retire rather than go back to work

No…

 
He's not a RINO but he focuses only on the stock market which is on a sugar cash high due to Gov't handouts. It's why the serious observers don't consider the stock market when evaluating the economy. But I'll bet you $100 right now that the numbers will be revised down in a month or 2 because they're lying. In fact, every single month for the last 11 months, the numbers were revised down. Layoffs are occurring at a rapidly increasing rate across the country. Some crazy high number (like 60%) is living paycheck to paycheck now. Everyone knows the numbers are BS.

Congratulations on becoming $100 richer! (If you can convince him to actually pay up lol)

The headline 275,000 increase in jobs in February would have offered more punch --- if not for a reduction in the employment gains in the prior two months.

The government lowered its estimate of new jobs created in January to 229,000 from an initial 353,000.

The previous 333,000 increase in new jobs in December was also chopped down to 290.000.

Altogether, some 167,000 fewer new jobs were created in January and December than previously reported.


And that’s the seasonally adjusted figure too…

  • A uniquely divisive president
  • Deep fear from global pandemic that was killing thousands of Americans every day with images of refrigerator trucks outside hospitals filled with bodies.
  • Economy shut down in a way the modern world has never seen.
  • Trump lied repeatedly about it all "just going away, just like the flu", which did not build trust or credibility with the populace.
  • The right was highly motivated by George Floyd riots and endless rhetoric about a stolen election.
  • It was easier than ever to cast your vote.
  • Biden was a significantly more palatable choice for many people than Hillary Clinton.
Not only is the 2020 turnout not mysterious, it is one of the easiest electoral phenomena of the last fifty years to explain. Chaos and fear drive engagement, and we had plenty of both leading up to the election.
Yeah and how can you have 100 percent voting in all the nursing homes in the nation. That’s a miracle boy!

Well I may have stretched it a little with the 100 percent thing but in was on the news about nurses signing absentee ballots for patients and checking Biden’s name. This was happening mainly in Ga. and in other Dem run states.
"on the news" doing a lot of work here.

The corrupts are not incompetent at all. Just look at how they have brainwashed so many American people to think men can have babies, your kids should be able to chop off their body parts, paying more for energy will save the planet, gas stoves and air conditioning will kill the planet, worshiping God is evil but worshiping their leaders makes you enlightened, Marxism works, we just need to give it a try, even though it's failed everywhere it has been tried, DEI isn't racist but all white people are, jailing your political opponents is defending democracy and government can mandate equality of outcome by punishing successful people.

They're are not incompetent, they are evil. They scream that Trump is evil but that's just projection right out of the communist playbook. It's not this administration, it's the entire Democrat party leadership. And their voters will march in lock step like storm troopers to carry out whatever orders they are given by their oligarchs.
I don’t believe any of those things. I despise Trump.


Your attempt to put everyone that hates Trump into that box of nonsense is lame.
 
Trump is not going to be the next president. Between election year coverage and the court cases, moderates, independents and low-involvement voters are going to be seeing much more of him and the current undecideds are going to skew heavily towards the ancient guy who isn’t looking and sounding like a deranged lunatic over the ancient guy who is.

Biden’s entire media strategy could focus exclusively on clips of former Trump cabinet members and other senior members of the GOP trashing Trump juxtaposed with video of Trump himself.
Trump has a built a cult like following of true believers that take his word as gospel truth. It’s s bit scary to see the Republican Party hollowed out by a man who is not a Republican but an egotistic opportunist that loves power and a crowd.

I’ve always felt that Hillary got both Obama and Trump elected mostly because of the anybody but Hillary voters.

Now we get a rematch between two men that I think a significant portion of the country would prefer anybody but either one of them. It comes down to which can energize their base to vote and capture the swing voters.

I don’t see Trump getting the women’s vote or enough of the educated Indeoenent vote to win a general election unless something unexpected happens with Biden.

I will say it again. If you believe any numbers this admin puts out about the economy, you are naive and not paying attention. They are never correct. They are spun. Every single time, they change for the worse. It is amazing how many people cover for this idiot in office when it comes to policy.
