Nonfarm payrolls fell by 140,000 in December against the consensus estimate for a 50,000 gain.

The unemployment rate held steady at 6.7%.

Hospitality accounted for most of the job losses, as bars and restaurants took a particularly hard hit.

The level of permanent job losses actually fell for the month, an encouraging sign.

Job gains came in professional and business services, retail and a handful of other industries.

People know that Biden won't have their backs on jobs. He cares more about illegals and lining his pockets with money from China. Peking Joe is already destroying the economy.

Record job gains under Trump's watch! But then, the Dems decided to try to destroy the economy by locking down their cities/states, and oddly, they ended up with more cases and more deaths than those that did not lock down.

" Businesses are closing!! It is all Trump's fault." seems to be a better fit to me. Trump isn't ending the pandemic! Trump isn't finding a vaccine fast enough! "Trump isn't dispensing the vaccine quick enough." "We aren't taking the Trump vaccine!"

Looks like COVID 19 has ran off the seasonal flu. Oh, I know, mask wearing kept the numbers to near zero, but they keep complaining that COVID 19 isn't going away because people aren't wearing the masks (which of course do nothing positive but do harm the wearer).

Some of this is just delayed layoffs from big companies due to the first round of shutdowns.

I've been expecting this for some time.

Nope, on the democrats because it's their lock downs in their democrat controlled cities and states that are the problem.

Sorry, but look at the facts as the Trump Virus, just like the mob breaking into the Capitol this week, have only one person to blame and he cannot leave soon enough.
