The US economy regained 2.5 million jobs in May as coronavirus pandemic shutdowns began to ease, sending the unemployment rate falling to 13.3 percent, the Labor Department reported Friday.

The result defied even the most optimistic expectations among economists, who had been expecting job losses of more than eight million and a jobless rate of 20 percent or higher.



President Donald Trump immediately cheered the data, tweeting, “Really Big Jobs Report. Great going President Trump (kidding but true)!”

The report attributed the improvements to “a limited resumption of economic activity that had been curtailed in March and April due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and efforts to contain it.”



However, as it has for the past two months, the Labor Department said the jobless rate was likely three points higher due to errors in how workers described their job status.

Still, with states allowing businesses to reopen, employment last month rose sharply in leisure and hospitality, construction, retail trade and education and health services, according to the data.

The number of workers on temporary layoff declined by 2.7 million to 15.3 million in a sign people have been able to return to their jobs.

The gains came despite downward revisions to March and April that subtracted another 690,000 jobs.

And government employment continued to decline sharply, dropping by 585,000 positions.

Trump is doing well...

Mmm

Righteousness89:
The Truth is that the Demoncrats/Globalist are not After President Trump! They are After you and I.

Whether Trump wins or lose there is nothing they can do to Him.. The Fight is about Control! The Fight is about the New world order! The Fight is against putting out the ideas and plans of the Lawless one, The so-called Man of Peace..

The Demonrats are willing to destroy America to get their will done.

27 Black lives were killed during 2days ago and their Business burnt by their fellow blacks! Their crime was that they are Christians and trump supporters. Yet the Media turned blind eyes to this Wickedness..

Trump is a Divine Project! Humanly looking, you will say he is not Qualified! but GOD does not see things as humans see!

The Economy boom the US witnessed was as a Result of the Divine Backing He has..

Between now and November you will see another Boom , Like Never Before!

That is why they Hate! They know The happenings with him are Great and unusual!

Trump's Presidency is a Mercy Period for the Inhabitants of the Earth to Make Peace with JESUS..

Mark this; If Trump goes, Many will not Survive the Events that will Hit this Earth..

In your Closest, Pray For Trump!

Pray for yourself, you need it more, Mr prophet

Fake figures.....

And most of those jobs are likely retail slavery, which no person can support themselves with. Any actual real jobs are probably swiftly being handed to unskilled, unqualified, idiot Indians and Mexicans who work for crumbs.

What kind of senseless propaganda is this?

The mainstream media will pretend not to see this and the other numerous achievement of Donald Trump. Reasonable and Rational knows better and he will be massively reelected come November 3, to their awe,shock and disappointment.

Campaign strategy of Trump

Nothing was created.......people were switched from showing as unemployed to showing as furloughed. So many companies are filing for bankruptcy.
