Looks like it's not "#Biden's economy" any more.

More bad news from the #trumpconomy:
"Payrolls in the US dropped by 92,000 and the #unemployment rate ticked up to 4.4%, according to the latest official figures, surprising analysts who had expected hiring to remain stable.
"It marked the biggest monthly #job loss since October, when the US government shut down, and came amid concerns that a jump in #oil prices sparked by the #US-Israel #war in #Iran could threaten growth."

#Trump promised his reign of terror would magically lead to many new good jobs for #Americans. This was a lie, and the data prove it:
"Preliminary data had indicated that the U.S. #economy added 584,000 #jobs last year. But the Bureau of #Labor Statistics revised that number after it received additional state data and found that the labor market had added 181,000 jobs in all of 2025."

In #Trump's #economy, the #government bends over backward to cut #taxes for the #rich, let big companies become too big, and everyone else can pay 10x insurance premiums and starve. And the #workingclass is starting to notice:
"According to the latest YouGov/Economist poll, only 31 percent of those earning $50,000 or less approve of Trump's handling of the presidency, compared to 65 percent who disapprove and 4 percent who were unsure.'

"Only 31% of #Americans approve of the way the #president is handling the #economy, which makes sense when you recall he promised to lower prices on day one and do away with inflation on day one and usher in some mythical Golden Age. None of those things have happened. People do see an #affordability scam, but it has nothing to do with #democrats.

#America, do you feel better about your #financial situation, now that the #President gave his speech in #Pennsylvania? Can you afford #groceries now that you've been told to only buy two pencils for your children?!

Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."
