From the NYT:

Employers continued to create jobs but pulled back on hiring, a sign that more businesses are putting expansion plans on hold as they deal with economic uncertainty.

The economy added 73,000 jobs last month, the Labor Department reported on Friday, lower than economists’ expectations. The unemployment rate slightly rose to 4.2 percent, up from 4.1 percent the month before.

In a sign that the labor market may not have been as robust as it seemed earlier this year, job gains from the past two months were also revised down by a total of 258,000, an unusually high number.

Jobs lower than expectations.

Unusually downward revision of prior months.

Unemployment slightly up.

Everything Trump touches dies.

Trump needs to find a way to 'control' the data. I'm sure he is working on that problem. Next: get a politicized Fed. We saw in the last Fed meeting how the only two who opposed the consensus were Trump appointees.

While I am certain some of the Trump policies have been VERY BAD, I don't put all of this on his changes. I do think AI is starting to eat into some of the higher paying jobs. This is just anecdotal based on my circle of friends, and would appreciate any statistical data...

S&P: "US corporate bankruptcies in July reached their highest monthly volume since 2020."
"June marked a historic surge in US corporate bankruptcy filings, with the highest number recorded in a single month since at least the start of 2020 and surpassing half-year figures seen in over a decade."

The worst #'s since the last time Trump was president!

Viewing Trump's economic policies, it becomes very clear how Trump managed to go bankrupt 6 times...

Obviously fake news.

Trump is a genius businessman.


As for the increasing number of bankruptcies…… you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette! You libs don’t know anything about business. Thank God our pedopresident does!


Even as we speak, he’s cooking those omelettes on the concrete parking lot that replaces the White House Rose Garden. Again, he understands EFFICIENT USE OF SPACE- unlike those rose bush hugging libs.

Americas 1st Pedo President

Americas 1st REPEAT Pedophile President--elected by pedophiles for pedophiles.

How much more "winning" can MAGA stand?...

"For the third month in a row, Americans are spending more than they're making."

"Families at the lower end of the income spectrum are increasingly under pressure from a labor market that is softening and prices that are rising,
while individuals at the higher end of the income spectrum are still spending relatively freely."

"Many Americans are spending down savings and putting more on credit cards and that is not sustainable.
You can only finance your consumption through credit for so long. Credit is good as a bridge, not a long-term solution."

We now have the worst economy since the last time Trump was president!
Observing Trump's economic policies, it becomes very clear how he managed to go bankrupt 6 times...

"Smart people don't like me." ~Trump
