CNN Desperately Tries to Spin ‘Dismal’ December Jobs Report

CNN just can’t catch a break in its crusade to spin President Joe Biden’s atrocious economy in a way that benefits his image.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics released an awful jobs report showing that the economy only added a “dismal” 199,000 jobs against a 422,000 projection by economists. That’s a miss of 223,000. The labor force participation rate remained stagnant from November at a low 61.9 percent. CNN scrambled to spin the news in it’s write-up headlined, “Jobs disappoint in December, but unemployment falls to 3.9%.” After conceding that the “fewest jobs added in any month of 2021” was a “major disappointment,” CNN put asinine spin on the news: “Even so, 2021 will go down in history as a year of record-breaking jobs growth: America added 6.4 million jobs last year, the most since records started in 1939. Every single month brought jobs gains.” Ironically, CNN included a graph in its article that undercut its entire argument.

Maybe if they got the teachers back to work moms could go back into the job market.

The school shutdowns are bearing bitter fruit.
I’ve seen it with my grandchildren.
There’s things that tutoring just can’t catch up.

My friend’s grandson flunked out of college first semester (physics major) because his senior yr of high school was a waste.

At what point do these idiot “economists” get taken to task for their ridiculously rosy predictions?

What’s wrong with CNN? Other disinformation specialists are just ignoring the Labor Dept and reporting the meaningless ADP report about how many customers ADP is adding.

Face it folks, The Democrat Party in essence, and Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi & Chuck Schumer, etc, are total failures at governing the USA Nation Republic.

As for their big play with “January 6th, 2021”....that gig is as dead as the nearest door nail!!! Lots of shouting, ranting & raving from the low life Democrat Dregs & their Lap Dog Media goons...but not many Americans heard their BS lines. That my fellow Americans was a one day story with little truth or substance. And to boot the story was greeted Friday morning with a terrible jobs report, 199,000 instead of the the 460,000 predicted by failed empty suit, POTUS, Joe Biden!!!

Stay tuned folks more Congress Democrats will declare that they will not be running for re-election in the upcoming mid-term elections!!!
