US Economy Adds Far Fewer Jobs In March Than Expected | Fox Business

Here we go -- our slowdown?

I know only one month but it is quite a drop.

I don't blame Trump policies because there haven't been any significant enough to impact jobs.

What do you all think?

Could be a slow down...ya never know.

I bet you won't get pages and pages of Trumpers in this thread like the February jobs report thread did.

Guessing At Employment Growth - ADP Vs. BLS - Nasdaq.com

Ahhh that explains it. Wondered why ADP's numbers were so off -- they 'estimate' -- how can that be taken as anything but wishful thinking -- lol

Obama averaged 187,000/mo. last year.

Trump isn't going to make the 25 million new jobs in ten years, promise. (BTW, who gives 10 year predictions for jobs when a prez only gets 8 if re-elected?)

Oh, haven't you heard ? Trump is special and will be appointed President for life. It won't even take congressional approval, he will just refuse to leave office.

It's one month. But if the White House wants to own last month's numbers, they have to own this month's too.

At this point we don't have much data on Trump. It may be just a blip, or it could be that businesses are starting to fear that not only will Trump not deliver, he'll make things worse.

Exactly.

To be fair, it may not mean anything, in the long term. But yeah, he's going to have to take credit for the bad if he wants credit for the good.
