Employment growth in February this year was the weakest since February 2011.
Has this weak employment growth something to do with Trump? No. The problem is that the "Current Employment Statistics (CES)" from the Bureau of Labor Statistics is rather a joke than a reliable statistic. Most likely that employment growth in 2015 and 2016 was overstated.
The problem with this is that supposedly we were already at "full employment" level. So how can so many jobs be created when we are already at full employment level. The answer is that many Americans are still out of work despite what the Obama administration wanted you to believe.
It doesn't matter, does it? Trump still did much more in just a few months than Obama did in 8 years Also don't forget these are real jobs not the kind we had under Obama. This much transparency was never there
BO had the longest consecutive months of job growth in the history of the country (71) when he left the Presidency in January. In addition, he created 10,800,000 jobs during his 8 years in office despite inheriting a crushing recession brought on by the repubs.
So 235,000 is OK but keep in mind Donny is still riding the momentum of what BO started and shouldn't be taking credit for something he has nothing to do with. In addition guess what the job number was for February 2016 - wait for it - 235,000 - so again no improvement.
When Donny get's within sniffing distance of BO's record of job creation - get back to me. I'll be waiting!
Trump created these jobs how exactly? Oh yeah; Twitter was forced to hire an additional 235,000 employees to delete all his false, vulgar, and profane posts he's tweeted every weekend from Mar-a-Lago.

Maybe that's because he came into office during a dire recession where millions lost their jobs. The jobs market couldn't go anywhere but up despite who the president was.

Or stay flat for several years as in the great depression of the 1930s. Hell, I'm right of center and I'm willing to give Obama some credit for turning the economy around. The jury is still out on Trump.

The proof is in the pudding. Federal Reserve unable to raise rates for years. Now they finally can raise rate.

After every recession jobs always come back, slowly at first and then much more quickly. It's a cycle that happens over and over again. A depression is an entirely different animal.
