we had two hurricanes AND the report from last month has been revised up to positive net growth continuing the 7 year streak of job growth.

Why can't you be happy?

Thanks for the real truth, these tweets are so misleading. Then when the truth gets called out, it's fake news

Our economy has been going good for a few years now, trump just has to not mess it up. Luckily no major legislation has been accomplished yet and I hope never will. Just let the market speak for itself.

Has coal jobs gone up or the tech industry just continually booming. Gotta love Amazon and Apple
Manufacturing gained more jobs than IT.

these were larger and more vicious, and that is a fact.

You should post the report rather than a tweet, it's really misleading

No, we did not have two hurricanes in October. They were in September, and the horrid jobs numbers for Sept were already blamed on them. They said the people who temporarily lost jobs in Sept would come back in October, which is why the expectation was much higher than the actual 261K

September (the month of the hurricanes) was revised up, we did not lose jobs that month.

The business community has confidence in Trump. Good thing, as they are the very ones who actually create jobs. If only our politicians would keep their bickering to themselves, ideally in private, and stay out out the way. To hear Dems talk of the middle class paying more taxes under the new tax plan was a barefaced and most appalling lie, quickly debunked by the Wash Post as a clear misrepresentation of the facts.

Partisan politics has gotten so bad that even tax breaks for the middle class are now subject to the standard ploy of spread the lie and hope it reached enough of people before the real facts come out.
