Trump “Did That!” → June had first job loss since 2020

[22lcidw]

Looks like Trump needs to fire more BLS economists

Loss of 13,000 jobs in June
Only 22,000 added in August

Makes you miss the Biden economy

And they are slowly moving from Prog to red areas for some reason. Prog areas will start to decay at some point.

16 million jobs added under Biden

Why is Trump losing jobs?

 

[Hollie]

It's all Powell's fault. trump's strategy of establishing a fall guy is well understood by some of us.

By “some of us”, you mean your circle of leftist loons?

Lol, people going back to work isn't creating jobs, he also lied about creating a million jobs.

 

[sealybobo]

It's not that we need them. It's how many we need. And that is used by a corrupted political class to eventually help change the type of government we have. In a low tax government of the past, it was easier to deal with it. What kind of employment system will he have if the endless illegals keep entering? I must surmise that you believe that all American citizens will live massive comfortable lives. In the zero-sum society, Progs really believe there is limits in growth. So the people fit into that one way or the other.

1. Illegals don't vote
2. Hispanics vote surprisingly conservative/Republican

We would be stupid to think Hispanics will tilt elections in our favor

California, Texas, and Florida have the largest number of Hispanic residents
Hispanics make up 40.2% of the population in Texas

How are you winning Texas every 2 years?

Today’s revision shows June jobs weren’t just weak… they were negative. That’s right, under Trump we had the first monthly job loss since December 2020. Meanwhile, Biden never once delivered a negative jobs month, but Trump managed to stumble into one almost immediately.

Hmmm, you don't think that is because of the elimination of 85K Biden make-work jobs at the IRS do you?

President Biden averaged 333,000 jobs a month for FOUR YEARS

Trump gave us 22,000 last month and LOST 13,000 in June

Until the numbers got revised down when no one was paying attention. Most of them were government jobs. Biden also had the highest inflation in 40 years.

That is a good point. I think all the government job cuts has more people looking for jobs and at the same time companies are not hiring like they were last year under Biden.

Republicans cried that those jobs weren't paying enough to keep up with inflation. So their solution? Eliminate those jobs? Problem solved. LOL. Now you don't have those shitty paying jobs to raise the wages. Brilliant!

Trump hid from us how bad covid was. He fired the woman who put out the jobs report. He hides things from us because he doesn't think we can handle the truth. As bad as it is/was. So just lie to us, which he's good at.

From AI.............According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and multiple news reports, the U.S. manufacturing sector lost 78,000 jobs over the past year. The most recent data, released on September 5, 2025, shows that manufacturing jobs fell by 12,000 in August alone.

What happened to trump's promised rebirth of the US manufacturing sector?

Are you sure this isn't fake news put out by this upstanding guy?

(CNN)






President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics operated a since-deleted Twitter account that featured sexually degrading attacks on Kamala Harris, derogatory remarks about gay people, conspiracy theories, and crude insults aimed at critics of President Donald Trump.
E.J. Antoni, a 37-year-old economist for the conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation, posted the comments from approximately 2017 through 2020 under a series of usernames and display names. CNN verified that all of Antoni’s posts came from the same Twitter account and that the posts from the anonymous aliases shared strikingly similar biographical details as Antoni.
An outspoken critic of the nonpartisan BLS, which calculates US job growth and unemployment figures, Antoni is a stout Trump loyalist. NBC News reported and CNN confirmed that he was a “bystander” at the US Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. There is no evidence he entered the Capitol.

His appointment comes after Trump fired the Biden-appointed BLS commissioner and accused the agency without evidence of corruption after a report showed job growth in May and June was weaker than previously estimated.
Antoni has positioned himself as a watchdog for government accountability in media appearances and Heritage Foundation blog posts. But his own digital trail reveals a pattern of incendiary rhetoric that veered frequently into conspiracy theories and misogyny. And so on.....

Yep, that report is a GD fake. I guess it gives snowflake magas something to dispute over and over again. Just another day in maga land.

 

[debbiedowner]

I don't get your "full effect of the legislation passed....(etc)" comment

????

He doesn't either.

 

[debbiedowner]

It should surprise no one that if you deport illegal labor, there will indeed be job losses.

Not if they're paid under the table as many magas will tell you.

 

[Mac1958]

Just another day in maga land.

Yup.

One of the countless ironies of this ugly period has been the way Trump has literally created his own Deep State of hyper-obedient government employees, subservient specifically to him, after years of MAGA screaming "Deep State".

These are not qualified, experienced professionals. These are the types of craven sycophants we have seen in every authoritarian regime, from 30's Europe to modern-day North Korea. They do things the Great Leader's way, or else.

It's not about quality.

It's about loyalty. A willingness to lie, to break laws, censor critics, punish enemies, and enable stretching presidential power beyond its intended boundaries.

Yep. It's how regimes fall, too, after wrecking their countries. Everyone around the Great Leader is afraid to give him bad news, so his decisions are based on deeply flawed input.

It's just stunning that his has happened here. I would have sworn it never could.

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

No he just lied about creating 800,000 jobs.

job loss

Lol, people going back to work isn't creating jobs, he also lied about creating a million jobs.

The number doesn’t include people going back to work. It is relative to where Trump left things. So don’t make things up.

Another one pretending not to have heard the news about the lousy private sector numbers yesterday:

Labor market growth slows dramatically in August with U.S. adding just 54,000 jobs, ADP says

U.S. private-sector hiring rose less than expected in August, according to ADP.

LOL, Do you understand the difference between growth and loss? Clearly not.

Do you understand that crappy growth is considered bad news? Don’t lower the bar now. For instance, everybody and their mom considered today’s job report very weak despite the crappy growth.
