I’m surprised that they ever revise any of their “accomplishments” downward. Whatever the original BS number was, it was never going to questioned by the government lackeys in the media. Whatever the new number is, it’s a lie as well. Why acknowledge the already successfully peddled lie is false only to have to peddle the new lie?
Oh, that one is easy. By dropping the original number they have room for the next lie.
For example, the new jobs report. If they say 5 million new jobs, then revise it to zero, the next month they can say 5 million again. If they didn't revise, eventually someone might notice that we have created more jobs than there are people on the planet.
Not that any media would do the math and publish. . .
