Delayed job tallies for October and November, both of which were released today, showed the U.S. saw a net loss of 105,000 jobs in October.

Manufacturing -- Dozy Don promised to bring back manufacturing jobs -- lost 5,000 jobs in November, after a loss of 9,000 jobs in October.

The unemployment rate rose to 4.6%, the highest unemployment rate in more than four years.

Black unemployment is 8.3%.

Youth unemployment is 10.4% (likely higher, that number is from September).

Republican spinmasters can twist the jobs numbers all they want to fool people, but the US unemployment rate is now the highest it’s been in 4 years.

Meanwhile the prices of orange juice, chicken breasts, bacon, and fresh ground beef were up $1.15 for 32 oz, 22 cents/pound, a nickel/pound, and 94 cents/pound, respectively.

The national average price for a gallon of gas is still a little under $3 per gallon (despite Doze Don claiming it's under $2 per gallon).

And all the trends are going in the wrong direction.

So much winning.

It's not surprising at all that the unemployment rate is going up.

You mention the past four years. Those particular past four years had trillions of dollars pumped into the economy by the Biden administration. Of course that is going to stimulate employment--that was the purpose.

Further, A.I. is causing a radical shift of the labor market.

But go ahead and blame it on Trump, like everything else in your delusional universe.
