184,000. The job market has never been stronger than it is right now.

1. "Another sluggish economic report."

Media take in progress.

2. The media can't wait for next week

If they rise to 200,000 next week, which would still be outstanding numbers, they'll run with headlines like, "Jobless claims spike!" and "Jobless claims rising as Holiday season is upon us."

4. Democrats need to make this a bigger story.

A couple of Senators and Congressmen could release press statements.

The White House could make an announcement that they are turning their attention to saving our democracy and trying to get everyone vaccinated against the Covid, and will not have to devote as much effort to rescuing the economy as they have done for the last year or so.

The economy is recovering.

Now, they just have to tell the White House reporters, including the FOX reporters, so they can put it on their continuous coverage.

5. And talk about the Trump economy

It's a fact that Donald Trump had the worst jobs record since Herbert Hoover and left the economy with the worst year for growth since 1947.

If A Dem had that record, every voter in America would know about it every single day. It would just be an excepted fact that , "yeah, he was a total disaster for the US economy." But most people don't even know these basic facts.

6. Yes.

They need to hunt down the reporters that are over the Capitol and inform them of the news. Maybe they will use it as "filler"?

7. And the pandemic response botching is why Trump ruined

Put the shoe on the other foot. If a Dem President was handed a growing economy with low UE and botched a pandemic like Trump did, no one would be making excuses for them. It would simply be repeated over and over again how they ruined the economy.

Trump ruined the economy, Covid is no excuse for his jobs or growth record. Dems need to start repeating this every single time a microphone is put in front of them.

8. I am more interested in

How many jobs were created in Nov?

[Johnny2X2X]

10. 210,000

A very nice month for jobs growth.

The Biden economy has created more jobs in 10 months than the Trump economy did in 4 years.

9. But I though TFG alone could fix things.
