Did you read 'Kill the messenger': Trump ripped over 'dangerous and corrupt' firing of labor stats head?

Keep telling me how he is making the economy better:

"A furious President Donald Trump has fired the Commissioner of Labor Statistics following a dismal June jobs report that showed only 73,000 new jobs added and downward revisions of more than 250,000 for April and May."

Yep, … Donnie dipshit shooting himself and American in the foot again. We’ve always been transparent about data like that, and many institutions and businesses reply on accurate data—now because it dares to tell the truth, that Trump is really a dipshit, and destroying the country, he wants to throw it away.

[ProbablyClueless]

As with so many other situations, I’m gonna reserve my judgment until I know the numbers and Trump’s basis for criticizing them.

Could be worse. He could have just doxxed her and someone might have killed her.

[msc545]

Good point, although I will be unsurprised if I learn that "someone" did this subsequently.

[Sevenpointfive]

he's not going to stop. the end goal is for him to become dictator.

Trump wants honesty and accuracy in the economic numbers. the BLS did a dismal job.

[msc545]

Almost as dismal a job as Trump did in helping the economy.

[exitseven]

@msc545 Despite the drop in jobs the economy has thrived since Trump was elected.

[msc545]

It has not.

[msc545]

LOL "Honesty and accuracy" MY ASS

[exitseven]

The president depends on getting the latest and most accurate data to make the best decisions.

[msc545]

No Trump depends on people telling lies in order to cover up his mistakes and his illegal activities.

[slatyb]

Trump's tariffs are about to hit consumer prices bigly. No idea how he's going to spin that.

[msc545]

@slatyb, he will say it is Biden's fault

[slatyb]

Of course, nothing is ever his fault, or has been ever.

[exitseven]

@slatyb it has been 4 months already and the only thing we have seen is 150billion dollars in the treasury.

[msc545]

Lol. Trump cannot even tolerate honesty and accuracy in GOLF for God's sake. The man cheats at golf!
