Friday caps a great week for President Trump
It's been a great week for President Trump, from acquittal to economic reports to a great State of the Union Address to an appeals court ruling that tossed the bogus Democrat emoluments lawsuit.
It got even better with the labor participation numbers:
The Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said the economy created 225,000 in January, well above estimates. BLS says notable job gains occurred in construction, in health care, and in transportation and warehousing.
The number of employed Americans dipped in January to 158,714,000 — down 89,000 from December's record high.
The unemployment rate ticked up a tenth of a point to 3.6 percent in January.
But the labor force participation rate reached a Trump-era high of 63.4 percent, up from 63.2 percent in December, because the civilian labor force increased by 574,000 in January, after accounting for annual adjustments to population controls, BLS said.
Everything is looking up for President Trump, and he is peaking at the right time. Maybe this is why his re-election odds are at 60%!
