Love President Trump!!!

I’m not violent but every time he speaks I want to punch a pillow like it’s a convicted rapist

🍊realDonaldTrump may had a 🧠 problem. The New Cases of COVID-19 constantly breaking records and more States shut down again. July will probably another trouble months for the US labor

Fuk

The people that will vote him out of office don’t live their lives quarter-to-quarter.

Not a Trump fan but I’m sick of people rooting for our country to fail.

People are broke & cant afford to buy food & you think we’re gonna have a great 3rd quarter are you mental

Ever the optimist, lol.

Only the ignorant would beleive this. The reality? Numbers are up because of the dramatic COVID job losses and the slow returning to work.

Talking about a hoax...

And yet you’re hiding things from the mueller report.

Pres. orange man predicts that 'you're going to have a fantastic third quarter...and the good thing is the numbers will be coming out just prior to the eating contest, so people will be able to see those numbers.'

There is no next year for you as a President

When you lose the election that’s when I’ll go drunk with power

😂realDonaldTrump it won’t matter. You suck as a leader. Negative 👎 ratings

Ah and that's all he cares about...His campaign. For the non politician all those dummies that voted for him told us about, he sure is very political.

Maybe by next year half of the nation will remain! Of course, we gonna dye of COVID19, the money won't be necessary😢😷

Lol look at all the whining haters, hating ! They Would rather the economy collapse than see Trump have success

The Administration are PURE LIARS, what about those Businesses that were lost permanently ,there are Millions of people Who most likely will never be capable of Paying their Mortgages and Rent, People who are Now Homeless,and the indigent that are now Sunk in and forgotten...

That’s a president?

Of course. realDonaldTrump is trying to make himself look better. Any questions from our great journalists would put the light on how delusional, inept and racist he truly is. He craves legitimacy but will never come close to that.

go home.

hey Are you looking for designs your product such as logo design packaging design labels,flyer etc.!!! Here is the best place.

After 125.00O + people’s death how can they have fantastic time? Idiot !

Because they're evil.

He’s terrified maxwell has the goods on him

He’s taken more questions than Obama every did and he got softballs.

He does not look or sound well...

Some leader!!! He can t even answer a fucking question

'They would've wilted' - yeah, no. George Bush was a scumbag of a President and even he would have dealt with it. What he wouldn't have done was hide in his bunker from cardboard signs and chants. BunkerBoy Traitor

guy rolls out to prop up numbers but wont answer tough questions pussy

Too many hard & embarrassing questions to answer. No wonder he scurried back to his bunker for safety, with his comfort blanket. Wish we had a real president. At least a real man to start with.

27 seconds? Still longer than he lasted in bed with Stormy.

Desperate trump will manipulate anything

Jumps on TV whenever he can grasp onto any positive news. Proceeds to predict “numbers” will look good by election. Can’t stop thinking of himself. Motherfuck this clown.

Well he’s right about the timing…

vxx46 Greedy CEO can hire the poor cheaper. Bullish!

TRUMP 2020!! 🇺🇸💪🏾MAGA

translation: he can't get his tiny mushroom to rise, it's wilted

Yea shit about to fly

What you meant to say was wow, Trump economy is awesome. Thanks for guiding us through these troubled times.

Did he really do that? Lack of empathy, his misinformation and denial of virus and consequences are troubling.Not a leader in crisis for sure.

Fu*king Coward!!!

The truth is that Kudlow/Mnuchin are toying with expectations, betting that folks without portfolios will only see stock market numbers, not thousands of sick and dying citizens. Vietnam's ACCEPTABLE LEVEL OF CASUALTIES...

Perhaps the folks who 'cross over' through the gaps in the wall that is funded criminally are being now counted as working?

This bullshit will be used as ammunition for the criminal US Congress to say that no more stimulus will be needed for all the little people! Meanwhile, none of the politicians have lost a penny, and going on vacation as the richest get richer still!

It's not added jobs! It's that a few places desperate to reopen, opened. People went back and are now at the verge of closing again. All in the quest of a moron president trying to be a Putin.

MORE: Another 1.4 million workers filed for unemployment insurance in the last week.

I like presidents that don’t gloat about gaining jobs that he lost do to his incompetence.

The epitome ...of fakenews sources say...

This 'spectacular news,' in reality, means that people who have been laid off during the early stages of the pandemic, have now returned to work. In short, there has been no real growth.

He’s just gonna claim the jobs RETURNING are NEW jobs again. 🙄

EducateAPatriot Eric Garcetti on Coronavirus: ‘Some of the Spread Did Come From Our Protests’

It might not? LOL It certainly doesn’t. I wish the media were more responsibly reporting on this data. 4.8M jobs were NOT “created.” Most were from furloughed emp’s returning to their jobs. Look at how many permanent layoffs in June there were with many more losses to come!

Illiterate psycho!!!!!!

Why bother? He’s just going to bitch and whine like usual. At least his pres sec is objectively attractive 😭😂😳

your narrative is outrageous. It fell 'slightly' sure it did from 13.3 to 11.1% !! 2nd month running of record numbers. MSM should be trippin over these numbers!

bruh he just gonna gloat about 11.1% unemployment

He’s quitting!?!?

Oh jesus this is in like 10 mins. Should I make coffee or popcorn

I hope this means he is resigning! TrumpKnewAndDidNothing TrumpResignNow

And there's 4.8 million more working. KAG2020

ABC is such a joke 4.8 million jobs recovered and unemployment falls but not enough for the Democratic media activists. 100% why nobody trusts the media

Any % above 5-7% unemployment is nothing to cheer . Everyone went back to work and now everyone is sick

JUST IN - REPEATEDLY

I do not trust this report. Last month the DOL admitted they were using incorrect data since March and all of those reports were wrong. Last months reports were off 4 percent. Trump is rigging the numbers. 40 million people out of work does not produced an 11% UI.

Alternate headline: ○Record Job gains of 4.8 million in June Smashes Expectations. Unemployment Rate Falls to 11.1%.○ (From CNBC)

Oh please. We all know he is just going to brag about the job numbers. And its only people going back to work...from the pandemic he screwed up. Don't fall for his BS!! TrumpOut2020

No thanks.

But howmany deaths? 🙄

Oh so he's coming out to tout the job numbers he had nothing to do with...

So if you tune in around 10-10:15 you’ll only need to wait another 15, 20 minutes for the president who’s always late.

MANY work places found thru this Pandemic, that workers are actually MORE PRODUCTIVE at home. MANY ppl are still employed, just not actually going IN TO WORK. This is the new norm. Godspeed GP

Added vs returning

Covid cases are still rising, and Russia is having our men and women killed. Naturally, he'll take a victory lap today

Should be interesting

Because THIS ADMINISTRATION would NEVER cook the books or solicit foreign election help!!

MORE: Employment rose by 4.8 million last month, but some economists expressed worries it might not accurately represent the current employment climate.

Once again people commenting either didn't the article or choose the logic fallacy of reductionism. In other words a simplistic approach to reports on facts that require context & nuance. This jobs report is for the status of jobs from 5+ weeks ago. Not what jobs are today. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The unemployment fell slightly? Hahaha it plunged 16.5% in one month! That's an enormous improvement. The economy has recovered one third of the lost jobs in just two months.

“Slightly”

How to phrase your headline of good news as bad news. FakeNews

Did they double check the numbers this time? I mean that 3% off last month. ;)
