Why do say ridiculous stuff like that? I can't stand Trump, I'm not a Republican, but I'm a healthcare worker on furlough and need a paycheck just as much as the next person. You think I want to be poor and unable to pay my bills?
It's how a partisan mind works.
I am independent, and I have been saying most of the 43 million jobs which were lost will come back rapidly, and it seems it is under way. Furlough is typically a temporary arrangement.

Its good news even if its bars and restaurants. Gotta start somewhere.

It's a projection of their own mind. Remember how they behaved during Obama presidency when they were enraged by even a hint of any good news.

the unemployment rate will drop fast when the major cities finally are allowed to open up from the lockdowns imposed by their democrat leader jailers....if those major cities are still intact and functioning after the violence, looting, and property destruction by the uncontrolled rioters.

Sadly for Trump what is a drag on him is behavior and overall character. If he could shut up a bit and stop tweeting like a moron he might be able to still win this election.
But until he behaves a lot of people are planning to vote against him based on his personal conduct irrespective of the economy, that's the sad truth for Republicans.

So all your gaslighting about killing the economy was just partisan hype?
Just imagine if we'd let this thing run rampant, or waited for Trump's miracle to cure it. We'd be way worse off, and instead of opening up (slowly), we'd be closing down even more, and quickly.
Hats off to everyone who was brave enough to stand up to Trump, and who supported science over nuttiness. We are recovering. Hopefully all the riots, the protests for haircuts, and the other gatherings won't set us back again.
You're not seriously deluded enough to try to spin a tick downward in the unemployment rate as a dem policy victory of some sort?
