Meanwhile in the anti-Trump "MSM"

[Jimmy Higgins]

CNN currently has this on their homepage.



"Trump's on track to deliver 25 (sp) million jobs in 10 years."



*click*

The U.S. economy added a robust 235,000 jobs in February, the Labor Department said Friday.

The unemployment rate ticked down to 4.7% from 4.8% in the previous month. It's a vast improvement from 2009, when unemployment peaked at 10% after the financial crisis.


"The U.S. economy is doing very very well at the moment," says Jeremy Cook, chief economist at World First, a foreign exchange firm.

Economists say it will be a challenge for Trump to fulfill his promise to create 25 million jobs over the next 10 years. The unemployment rate is already very low, and many Baby Boomers have either retired or left the job market.

Okay, let's parse here. 235k is now "robust". You go Trump!

Yes, the unemployment ticked down.

"it will be a challenge for Trump to fulfill his promise to create 25 million jobs over the next 10 years"

So yeah, umm... I understand the term "click bait" and the article title is click bait, but the article title is pretty much in no way accurate, unless we want to extrapolate on month of job growth for the next 119 months and say that is statistically meaningful.

But wait... what was that?

At least in his first full month, though, Trump is on pace to fulfill that promise.

So not click bait then? Did Spicer write this article?!

Hey Jimmy, why the (sp) on the number. You can't misspell a number. Well, yeah, the math says 28 million, so Trump is actually "on pace" to exceed his promise!

But yeah, CNN is at war with Trump as exhibited by this article.

um, why does Trump even get credit for that? He's been in office what 7 weeks? I know companies that couldn't be hiring in 7 weeks if they started the day after inauguration.

Umm ... because he's awesome, that's why.

Remember, according to Twitler, you can't believe those phony numbers from the BLS, the real unemployment rate is over 40%.

Because he takes credit for the fucking sunrise. And really thinks he did it.

Unfortunately, he probably want to actually be responsible. For a nuclear sunrise.
