At some point there are fewer and fewer people looking for a job. At this low unemployment rate, I would imagine the country is close to full capacity employment. Little wonder the hiring is down!

If he found a cure for cancer they’d be complaining about all the medical jobs lost.

I doubt it. Just a few years ago, cndidate Trump was stating unemployment was likely around 20% and as high as 42%. That sounds like a lot of slack.

“An unemployment rate in the range of 5 percent as “such a phony number...The number isn’t reflective,” he said. “I’ve seen numbers of 24 percent — I actually saw a number of 42 percent unemployment. Forty-two percent.” He continued, “5.3 percent unemployment — that is the biggest joke there is in this country. … The unemployment rate is probably 20 percent, but I will tell you, you have some great economists that will tell you it’s a 30, 32. And the highest I’ve heard so far is 42 percent.”

"Judy, Judy, Judy" ..... that is exactly what "the smart guys and girls" were saying on tv yesterday on the subject.

Congrats on your wisdom from above the border!
