Trump Effect: Private Employers Added Just 77,000 Jobs In February, Far Below Expectations

[g5000]

Comparing apples to oranges .. dipshit.

Comparing a jobs report to a jobs report, tard.

 

[TemplarKormac]

But that’s even worse. Lots of government layoffs without much private employment growth means the next jobs report could be really bad.

And predictions are even worse. Notice how they "expect" things in jobs reports? I don't care about predictions.

Comparing a jobs report to a jobs report, tard.

Comparing developing policies to established policies (which failed) ... tard. Not to mention, Trump is gutting the useless federal workers who provide no value.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Tissue? We were laughing at him last night, most of the country anyway.

Actually we were laughing at the Democrats' childish display in the chamber last night. Having the Sergeant at Arms being called on you should make your party ashamed of itself.

Comparing developing policies to established policies (which failed) ... tard.

Nope. You don't get to do that. Biden increased jobs, and the December jobs report was his work, not Trump's.

This jobs report is all Trump. He's creating a very uncertain economic environment.

And predictions are even worse. Notice how they "expect" things in jobs reports? I don't care about predictions.

To be fair, ADP isn’t exactly making a total guess given they run a ton of payroll, but we have seen signals that layoffs are escalating.

Predicting the results of our actions is kind of important.

It seems more likely that you don’t want to think about it.

 

[g5000]

It's unbelievable. Trump gets credit for good things even before he's sworn in. But no blame for bad shit happening on his watch.

Amazing. They really are a cult.

 

[jknowgood]

I'm sorry your ass burns because of the jobs report. Your orange god is flailing.

At )east Trump didn't lie about creating 800,000 jobs. Like Biden did.

Private sector job creation slowed to a crawl in February, fueling concerns of an economic slowdown, payrolls processing firm ADP reported Wednesday.

Companies added just 77,000 new workers for the month, well off the upwardly revised 186,000 in January and below the 148,000 Dow Jones consensus estimate, according to seasonally adjusted figures from ADP.

The total was the smallest increase since July and comes at a time when worries are rising that economic growth is slowing and worries brew that President Donald Trump’s tariff plans will spark another round of inflation. ADP said annual pay rose 4.7% in February, the same as the prior month.

Stock market futures lost some of their gains following the release while Treasury yields were mixed.

As predicted, a Trump victory is a punch in the face for the US economy.

This is when Repub's belief that the prez is responsible for everything that goes on in the economy comes back to bite them. So boys, don't bother blaming Biden.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Tissue?

If you were an actual libertarian, you'd be hating on Trump and his far left policies as much as I do, dipshit.

Actually, you're not any libertarian I recognize.

Your hatred reeks of far-left liberalism. I often find you agreeing with leftist nonsense.

Libertarians cheer reductions in government, limited government. But you? Your own hatred of Trump causes you to contradict your stated values. You should be cheering the reduction in government.

But hey, you're just as much a dishonest hack as the next guy. Pointless to for me to expect anything different.

 

[berg80]

At )east Trump didn't lie about creating 800,000 jobs. Like Biden did.

The number of jobs added during his full term was 16M.

Oh I'm thinking about it, but entirely unfazed by it.

Predictions are most often vehicles for people to make errors without being roundly criticized for it.

Knowing the facts eliminates the need to make predictions.

 

[Marener]

At )east Trump didn't lie about creating 800,000 jobs. Like Biden did.

Trump was more like 500,000. Way better?

 

[TemplarKormac]

It's unbelievable. Trump gets credit for good things even before he's sworn in. But no blame for bad shit happening on his watch.

Pretty sure you're not praising him for anything good he's doing now, either.

Your narrowminded focus on your hatred of him limits your capacity for reasoning any praise for him.

Does MAGA still believe facts exist? There doesn’t seem to be much they can’t handwave away.

 

[jknowgood]

Yes, people went back to work sfter the pandemic. Biden’s numbers were good at first but then they always got retracted.

 

[jknowgood]

Trump was more like 500,000. Way better?

Biden lied about creating 800,000 jobs. In fact almost all he numbers were retracted down a little while after they can out.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Sure, I believe in facts, even when they're inconvenient.

When facts are inconvenient to people like you, you accuse others of being in cults, or refer to them as "MAGA" as some sort of pejorative.

On the bright side, look at how many loser libs were shit canned from the government.

Revisions are made every year. One year Trump’s employment numbers were revised by 500k.

You were sold a bullshit narrative.
