Part time seasonal workers don’t make much money.

The ADP number was 67,000. That’s a big discrepancy.

People having three low paying jobs isn’t the win you think it is.

Income is up for households and for the first time ever in years it’s outpacing inflation

On Friday, the Labor Department announced that the economy added 263,000 jobs and hourly wages grew by two-tenths of a percent in April. The unemployment rate — 3.6 percent — is at its lowest level since December 1969, before the births of nine of the Democrats running for his job. This is huge.

We are close to the 2% rate the fed considers good for growth.

People are finally recovering from the Obama economy

Come on, man, that is just so intellectually dishonest. The economy has been in an upward trajectory since the recession. You (and everyone else) knows this. Cheerlead if you want, but don't lie.

Boomers are retiring, opening up jobs and creating demand for other jobs providing services to them.

The biggest job growth sector for several years has been health care services, driven by the aging of the boomers.

And the boomers who aren't using a lot of health care are providing the demand for the job growth in leisure and hospitality.

The GM strike being resolved was a good chunk of those numbers as well.

At the end of the day, given everything else this administration lies about, how do we know these numbers are accurate, particularly given the discrepencies with the ADP numbers?

My brother in the midwest just lost one of his 3 part-time jobs. He'd love to be full-time but in the type of work he is looking for the businesses seem to want to avoid paying for health insurance and are not hiring full time.

And before all the GOPers come on to say he needs to get trained or look for a better job, he has special needs and is doing work he is qualified for and does a great job at and loves. Training for a job he wouldn't function well at is not going to help. He needs health insurance that isn't dependent on businesses, so the businesses will start hiring full time.

Following Trump's lead, Trumpers aren't able to function without lying.

My family in the Midwest are doing great. More work and better jobs. They’re doing much better and have full time work. Obama was the president of the part time job. Now my family has full time jobs.

My family on the west coast is better as well. My BIL has gotten a great job with the trucking industry. With the economy booming his workload is amazing and they just got their first house!

In my case I’m better off, better job and more money and my stock portfolio is amazing!

You have to ask if you’re better off than four years ago, and for many Americans according to numbers are better off.

Is this increase in hourly wages the mandatory minimum wage increases some municipalities voted in despite republican pushback around the country?

Wow. Makes you wonder if PPP is a part of the Trump lie machine.

Yup. The Democrats will lose because of it. It alwayyyyyys comes down to jobs and the economy. Pelosi can keep blathering like the bloated red balloon she looks like about the impeachment inquiry. It won't matter because the economy is fantastic. And we havent seen anything yet. Everyone's 401ks will explode upward once Trump signs a grand trade deal with the Chinese.

It is also hilarious how badly liberals and Democrats want the economy to tank and for people to be out of jobs just so that they can gain political points. Remember back when liberals and the liberal media were predicting economic armageddon because of the trade war? Oooopsie, hasn't happened and the economy continues to rip. The S and P 500 continues to rise and the US actually appears to be gaining the upper hand on the Chinese, whose economy is now slowing and who are now dealing with a lot of unrest. Democrats and liberals can't stand Trump because he is so unorthodox and does not gaf. At least we finally have someone in office who has a spine to stand up for American interests rather than continuing to allow the Chinese to run roughshod over us.
