Democrats struggled to spin Friday’s massive job growth number as bad news for the economy, in what has become a monthly routine under President Donald Trump.

Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. Senior Adviser Lara Trump praised U.S. economic numbers under the Trump administration released Friday.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who would likely become Speaker of the House if Democrats win the midterm elections in November, trashed Friday’s jobs report — even though Blackrock called it “the greatest of all time.”

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) trashed the June jobs report — even though it showed rapid job growth, rising wages, and low unemployment.

Nonfarm payrolls soared in February, rising by 313,000 jobs vs. 200,000 expected by economists. Unemployment remained at 4.1 percent.

The U.S. economy gained 227,000 jobs in January according to statistics released by the Labor Department on Friday, while unemployment ticked up slightly to 4.8 percent.

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump slammed the underperforming job market displayed in the Department of Labor’s May jobs report as he spoke from the tarmac at his rally in Redding, California, on Friday.

We need 20 million full-time jobs in 2016 to offset half of our spending. After 5 months, we have 750,000. That means we are 19,250,000 jobs short in 2016 with 7 months to make it up.

Despite a forecast of 160,000 new jobs, the Obama Department of Labor announced that job creation in May plunged to 38,000, the worst monthly performance in 6 years.

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump responded to the jobs report released on Friday, calling it a ‘bombshell.’

Analysts were expecting well over 200k new jobs for September – which isn’t really all that great, but at least it’s enough to keep pace with population growth. Instead, we got 142k new jobs, the past few months were revised downward, wage growth remained flat, and the labor force shrank by another hair-raising 350k, knocking workforce participation down to 62.4 percent.

Friday’s jobs report brought little comfort to American workers, as wages posted their biggest drop in eight years.
