    Jobs baby! And, the lowest unemployment rate since 2007.

    Even retail added jobs.

    And, wages grew 2.5% in the last year.

    What the hell are you talking about?

    There are 93,000,000 unemployed Americans and we're not even seeing the real unemployment rate.

    Isn't giving themselves and their staffers an exemption to stay on Obamacare instead of Trumpcare a tacit admission it's at least better than what the House passed yesterday?

    4.4 percent unemployment rate. The BLS said so. We are at full employment. The country is thriving. ... Never mind the consumer debt levels that are through the roof, all the people working multiple jobs to earn what they were 12 years ago in one job, an economy that according to the same people compiling these statistics, grew at less than 1 percent over the first 3 months of the year. ...

    Do any of you read these reports? They are knee slappers. It's the same thing every month. We have created a nation of bartenders. ... Now we are at full employment, so this is as good as it gets before we hit the down part of the business cycle. Time to celebrate. People report these headline numbers, and pay no attention to the QUALITY of the jobs, and what the real economy has been doing. But people living reality are inured to it by now.

    Trump has already flown off to one of his golf clubs. Three-day weekend, eh?

    Sorry. You're wrong.

    Both the President and Rush Limbaugh have assured me it's a huge deal that we have 93,000,000 Americans not working, and that the Government isn't reporting the real unemployment rate.

    They report it. ... or at least something closer to it. The U6 number is around 8 to 9 percent. It's way closer to reality.

    So that's three of Fucko's private mansions now being set up as alternate White Houses, with attendant security costs in the hundreds of millions of bucks. Peachy keen. How many more?

    Rather than cause a big disruption in the USA, maybe he could swallow 1,000 Tylenol. Also save the country money!

    Funny how the methodology regarding how the U3 rate is calculated is criticized depending on who is president.
