Donald Trump’s disastrous governance has successfully tanked America’s labor market.
The federal government released another weak jobs report Friday, after the previous poor jobs report resulted in Trump lashing out and firing the Commissioner of Labor Statistics. At the time, Trump baselessly claimed that the “Jobs Numbers were RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad.”
It isn’t just that America’s workforce has lost an estimated 1.2 million immigrants.
Mike Konczal, the Senior Director of Policy and Research at the Economic Security Project, noted Friday that “the native-born unemployment rate is at the highest levels since the pandemic.”
