Boy, rough day for Democrats and their Fake Newsters. How they gonna spin this great news for America? Trump's on a roll. It's gotta sting.
Average?
True, the umemployment rate did in fact drop a lot more --after it soared into double digits in during the first year your faction's leader ran things. Still, by looking at the very beginning to the very end he still showed a 3% drop --not bad.The Black man is better than an Orange Man. Facts Matter!
My concern goes beyond just looking at the beginning and the end points in time, but rather the entire eight years between:
Lowest black/hispanic unemployment rate EVER.Average?

You have got to be kidding
So in your mind, an economy that starts with 4 percent unemployment and ends with 10 percent unemployment is the same as one that starts with 10 percent unemployment and ends with 4 percent
They have the same “average”
Point is kinda true. BS it was headed to the moon level from Dubya!

2000, that was Clinton.The unemployment rate is now 3.9%, the lowest it has been in 18 years! The last time the UE rate was 3.9% was the year 2000...
The economy created 164,000 new jobs overall, more than enough to keep pace with the average monthly amount of first-time job seekers (usually right around 150,000).
Nope, 95.7+ million not in labor force! 400,000 more than last month. That's how Tramp got to 3.9% UE, not by job growth but by contraction of the labor force. LFPR dropped .1% each of the last 3 months.95.4 million not in the labor force
Actually it was better when Obama left, 62.9%, than now, 62.8%.Labor force participation rate about the same as obama left it. Not such an important number anymore?
BLS says GOVERNMENT jobs INCREASED by 265,000 in April, from 20,957,000 to 21,222,000. All of a sudden the lying scum Right doesn't care about growing the government.The Bureau of Labor Statistics said that manufacturers added 24,000 workers in April, extending the 22,000 gain seen in March. It was the seventh consecutive month with robust growth in hiring in the sector, averaging 26,571 per month over that time frame.
Untrue. The Fed stopped setting unemployment goals, but the U-3 is still the rate they use.Even the Fed has stopped using it as THE metric for employment.
164,000 new burger flipping jobs is nothing to brag about
Wingers always downplay good news when they're not in power.Let me ask liberals on this forum this question:
Had the unemployment rate gone UP to say....6 percent.....would ya'll still be on here saying its a useless measure and that it doesn't indicate anything?
Me thinks not.

Obama was handed a 10.8% in 2009. Ended his rule at 4.4 with no help from Congress.
Which could mean they are useless.
No one has denied that the Obama economy, which Trump is riding, is good.
Trump is the election focus, no matter how much the GOP will try to sell differently.
The American electorate is now wise to the GOP/Alt Right Fake Alt Right Media (FARM) propaganda.
Aw, come on. That's just the irrational butthurt talkin. This is great news for the country.
yeah but NONE of this is going to matter soon if Trump wont get the balls to stand up to Israel and cut off aide to the bastards,if he keeps Kissing Israels ass as every president since LBJ has,he is going to get us into world war three. If Israel has its way with Trump Israel with our aide will topple Syria and Iran and the next country they will coerce the united states to invade is Russia which will in fact start world war three.
Trump should stop saying make america great and say make the WORLD great.

The blue surge is not because of a good economy, Redfish: you know that. It is that Donald is crazy and the GOP absolutely messed up because it control the squeals in the Alt Right and the Freedom Caucus. Watch what happens to the far right and alt right squeals in the fall this year in the elections.bullshitAw, come on: I know the truth irks you, Dschrute3. I have been pleased with the economy since 2016. It's running fine until the unwise GOP policies once again bust it. And, once again, I will be in position to do well because of GOP greed. The election, though, is a referendum on Trump and GOP foolish.

Obama was handed 2 wars, a recession, a housing bubble, auto industry was about to collapse... Trump was handed a strong economy and declining deficits. So far he's messed up one of the two.remember how bad things were this time during the Obama term? its was total depression in 2010.So now it doesn’t matter? Cause under obama the unemployment rate went down, but it was really the participation rate that mattered. Hypocrisy is funny.So Sad!!!Labor force participation rate about the same as obama left it. Not such an important number anymore?
even using the same calculation methods, Trump's numbers are better.

Obama allowed two stupid wars to continue and did nothing but pansy around with murdering dictators, he sent pallets of cash to the Iranians and got nothing in return. There was no recession in 08, it was a simple market correction that was way overdue. Obozo bailed out the car companies in order to save the UAW and keep its money coming in to the DNC. Obama doubled the national debt. WTF is wrong with you? Did you spend the last 8 years under a rock?
